"The murderer is here, with us... He is on the train right now..."
Shortly after midnight, the famous Orient Express is immobilized by a snowstorm in the middle of nowhere. In the morning, millionaire Samuel Edward Ratchett is found stabbed in his bed. The door to his compartment is locked from the inside.
His murderer is one of his fellow passengers... Hercule Poirot, also trapped on the train, attempts to solve the mystery. Among the passengers, there are many people who had reasons to hate Ratchett. Which one of them is the murderer? Is he planning to strike again?
A journey on the world's most luxurious train turns into a suspenseful mystery—and one of Agatha Christie's most popular works, read by millions of readers and repeatedly adapted for film and television.

They have tried to translate everything when it is not necessary (and they have made quite a few mistakes). If you know English, it is better to read it in its original form or from another publishing house because the mistake they made does not allow you to find out who committed the crime.
Finally, I found books that are enjoyable to read and, of course, to my liking. As a big fan of the TV series with the same name, I decided to get the book as a trial, and in the end, I couldn't put it down.
Disgusted by the crudeness, arrogance, poor vocabulary, and confusing writing style that I encountered in many books I had tried to read, even by well-known, award-winning authors, I ended up here and I'm glad that the series has many books for me to read.
Lastly, something that I liked compared to an older book I had read is that in the first 2-3 pages, it has all the basic names of the story, so every time you wonder who this person is again, you can refer back to the beginning and understand.
It keeps you in suspense. I read it in half a day! Very descriptive but not at all boring! The ending is unexpected!
The refined style of Agatha Christie with the touches of humor and irony that we love so much has been translated very well by the translator. One of the best detective novels I have read, without violent scenes and gore, what we call a cozy mystery: people change clothes for dinner, travel with their service, and express themselves with "sir" and "madam". Of course, the intelligent, dandy, and not at all modest character of Poirot is at the center.
I gave it as a gift to my brother and ended up reading it myself. One of the author's most popular books. It keeps your interest until the very last moment. Simply wonderful!!
