O romance policial de sucesso de Agatha Christie, Um Crime no Expresso do Oriente (Murder on the Orient Express), publicado pela primeira vez em 1934, deu origem novamente a um filme. Desta feita, foi Kenneth Branagh, que quis recriar uma longa metragem baseada no livro. 5 stars to 's. I chose to read this Christie spectacular after finishing 'And There Were None.'

But wait, there's a motive for everyone. How did this seemingly impossible murder occur? ![]() Hercule Poirot knows. Well, I'm glad he did because I was stumped! But with good reason as this plot twist will have your knickers locked down ( and not just in a bunch!). The plot is just too delicious. The characters are just fascinating. No modern day electronics. No ability to research anything other than by asking questions. And Christie wrote this nearly 100 years ago. That's why it's a 5 for me -- it's pure good storytelling without anything in the way. ”The train, it is as dangerous as a sea voyage!” So, this was my first Agatha Christie book and considering how much fun I had while I read it, it definitely won’t be my last.;-) Yes, you read correctly and your mind didn’t play tricks on you: I had F.U.N!!! I actually enjoyed reading this so much I constantly found myself giggling with delight! *lol* I swear there’s nothing better than a mystery or a puzzle you need to solve and I guess in this particular case it might have even been both!;-P T ”The train, it is as dangerous as a sea voyage!” So, this was my first Agatha Christie book and considering how much fun I had while I read it, it definitely won’t be my last.;-) Yes, you read correctly and your mind didn’t play tricks on you: I had F.U.N!!! I actually enjoyed reading this so much I constantly found myself giggling with delight! *lol* I swear there’s nothing better than a mystery or a puzzle you need to solve and I guess in this particular case it might have even been both!;-P There were so many hints and inconsistencies that my head was literally spinning but being the curious person I am, I still tried my very best to be perceptive and to collect all those little treats. XD By the end of the book I felt like a squirrel, gathering all the pieces until I was finally able to make sense of them! *lol* And somehow, I don’t even know how, I actually did it!!!;-P Maybe to watch eight seasons of “Castle” and all the Sherlock Holmes series and movies eventually paid off? *LOL* All I know is that I solved the mystery and I’m so damn happy I’m still grinning and laughing like crazy!!! 24 hours after finishing the book! XD ”Bughouse – that’s what this business is – bughouse!” Yes, I couldn’t agree more and since I don’t want to spoil anyone who still wants to read the book, I’ll write down my thoughts in this nice and tiny spoiler section! *lol* Detectives you’ve been warned!;-P The solution and ending: [ ”If so and so is lying, on what point are they lying and what is the reason for the lie?” I don’t even know how often I asked myself this question throughout the entire book, it must have been pretty often though! *lol* I was always certain that it was more than one person who killed Ratchett and at some point I suspected everyone to be the murderer. XD Even the doctor and the conductor! And I think it was exactly that moment when I finally realised that I was right, because as soon as I thought it, I instantly latched onto the conductors testimony and from there on everything fell into place.;-) I knew he must have lied and therefore been involved in the crime and then I thought about all those little hints I collected so carefully. The weapon in the spongebag, the mention of the actress, the door that was open, the incriminating pipe cleaner, the familiarity between Colonel Arbuthnot and Mary Debenham, the number of wounds on the victim and especially the remarkable difference of those mentioned stab wounds, the list could go on and on!
