Cover synopsis: Detective Hercule Poirot has booked passage on the Orient Express. One of the passengers is found dead of multiple stab wounds in the night. By dawn, thirteen travelers, each bearing a secret, will find themselves suspect in the most ingenious crime Poirot has ever solved.
This is my first Agatha Christie, and it was good. The writing was a bit methodical for my taste, but so was the detective, so I'm just going to chalk it up to his personal style. The story was interesting, the characters colorful, the outcome surprising, and the moral thought-provoking.
