Murder on the Orient Express

Just after midnight, a snowdrift stops the Orient Express in its tracks. The luxurious train is surprisingly full for the time of the year, but by the morning it is one passenger fewer. An American tycoon lies dead in his compartment, stabbed a dozen times, his door locked from the inside.

A masterpiece of detective fiction that keeps you guessing until the very last page. Christie's ingenious plot twists and memorable characters make this one of the greatest mystery novels ever written. The confined setting of the snowbound train creates an atmosphere of claustrophobic tension that is simply unmatched.
