The Mystery of the Blue Train
by Agatha Christie
A classic Hercule Poirot novel. Ruth Kettering, a rich heiress in the process of leaving her money hungry husband, Derik Kettering, is murdered on her way to the French Riviera and the famous Heart of Fire rubies are missing from her possessions. The last person to speak to her alive is Katherine Gray, a companion for older folks who has just inherited a fortune from one of her companions. Suspect is placed on Derik, Derik's mistress Mirelle, and many more. Full of affairs, money, fake jewels, and fake identities.
The culprit turns out to be Van Aldins (Ruths father) relatively new secretary, working in cahoots with Ruth's handmaid. They plotted to steal the jewels, and create false witness dressed as Ruth herself after her murder. The secretary is revealed to be the notorious jewel thief, the Marquis.
