Review of 'Murder On The Orient Express' by Agatha Christie

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. Isolated and with a killer in their midst, detective Hercule Poirot must identify the murderer – in case he or she decides to strike again.

Murder on the Orient Express is undoubtedly one of Agatha Christie's greatest mystery novels (and my favorite). Readers who like this book should visit the Pera Palace Hotel in İstanbul, where it was written. Seeing Agatha Christie's room and tasting the food at the Pera Palace Cafe was a very nice experience for me.
