Description

Just after midnight, a snowstorm stops the Orient Express dead in its tracks in the middle of Yugoslavia. The luxurious train is surprisingly full for this time of year. But by morning there is one passenger less. A "respectable American gentleman" lies dead in his compartment, stabbed a dozen times, his door locked from the inside...Hercule Poirot is also aboard, having arrived in the nick of time to claim a second-class compartment—and the most astounding case of his illustrious career.

I love reading this book but it the type of book where you have to read it in one sitting. Overall i love how the characters weren’t know until the very end.

Wasn’t bad, but definitely not something I’d read again. Kinda expected more but then again maybe it wasn’t my style?
