A murder on a speeding train leads Hercule Poirot into a case of wealth, deception, and hidden motives.
When the body of a wealthy young woman is discovered aboard the Plymouth Express, the circumstances surrounding her death appear to point toward a crime of passion—but Hercule Poirot knows that the truth is rarely so simple. As Poirot investigates the victim’s troubled marriage, missing jewels, and the suspicious behavior of those closest to her, he uncovers a carefully constructed web of lies and betrayal. With its fast-moving plot, clever clues, and classic Christie-style revelation, The Plymouth Express Affair showcases the brilliance of Poirot’s methodical reasoning and the author’s gift for creating perfectly crafted mysteries.
