cphenly 's review for:

Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha Christie
5.0

Possibly Christie's most famous novel. I've read it many times; still interesting to see how cleverly the plot unfolds.

Reread May 2024: this story is so famous now that it's easy to take it for granted. But reading it again, I am struck anew at how truly original this idea was at the time. Totally unexpected. Christie was the master.
