Just after midnight, the famous Orient Express is stopped in its tracks by a snowdrift. By morning, the millionaire Samuel Edward Ratchett lies dead in his compartment, stabbed a dozen times, his door locked from the inside. Without a shred of doubt, one of his fellow passengers is the murderer.
Isolated by the storm, detective Hercule Poirot must find the killer among a dozen of the dead man’s enemies, before the murderer decides to strike again.

I picked this as a listen because I loved all of the Agatha Christie mysteries in print, and this a classic. Dan Stevens’ narration is very good. His softly accented voice for Hercule Poirot reminded me of David Suchet’s portrayal in the television series. I wasn’t quite as big a fan of his voices for the female characters, but I was able to get used to them. Overall, a very fun listening experience, as expected.
Agatha Christie earned herself the title "The Queen of Mystery," and rightly so. Her plotting is impeccable, her writing pristine. And I love Hercule Poirot! Added bonus? Dan Stevens is an excellent narrator. His voices for all the different characters are superb, and I was particularly delighted with his portrayal of Poirot himself. His accents are spot on, his pronunciation as well, and I was thoroughly engrossed in the story...even though I'd already read it before. This is top-notch audio, folks.
