After quite some time, this was yet another of Christie's novels which made it into my 5-star rating list.

Poirot investigates the brutal murder of an American heiress on a French train. What first seems to be another Orient-express mystery, turns out to be a gripping tale of love, romance and murder.
As always, I especiall enjoyed the character details and the strong female figures that Christie envisioned.
Instead of Hasting, Poirot this time gets the help of a fascinating English lady.

The pace of the book was on piont and this time around, I even managed to uncover some part of the mystery before hitting the end of the story. It was a very entertaining read!
