Tolog Review: Murder on the Orient Express

Murder on the Orient Express
by Agatha Christie
reviewed by Rachel Yacoub

Murder on the Orient Express tells a very important lesson in today’s society: you can’t trust everyone. M Hercule Poirot, a detective, discovered this when he was traveling on the Orient Express. When a passenger on the train, Ratchett, is murdered in the middle of the night, Poirot searches for clues to discover the identity of the murderer. Poirot, his friend M. Bouc, and Dr. Constantine interview all twelve of the passengers, but each of them have a secret they are not willing to tell. What were they hiding? Why were they hiding it? Who were these people really? Poirot, M. Bouc, and the doctor asked themselves these questions numerous times. Agatha Christie is a known writer of mystery and romance novels. She has a talent to draw the reader in and keep them on their toes. Although she died in 1976, her characters are immortal. Poirot, M. Bouc, and the doctor are repeatedly puzzled by the lies told to them. Will they be able to solve the murder? Or will the murderer never be found?
