A mystery by the master of Golden Age Detective fiction. The daughter of a wealthy American is found murdered on the Plymouth Express. Her jewelry case is missing. Japp suspects her husband, but is there another man in the picture, or is the murderer someone else entirely? Only the "little grey cells" will tell. Christie fans will not be disappointed.

I liked this one better. I would have never guessed who the killer was, and it (as always) ended up being extremely convenient at the end, with people you could have never guessed. I think that's just how she writes, so I'll keep reading then.
