Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha Christie *

I absolutely loved this book!  Ms. Christie is a compelling story-teller. 
Hercule Poirot , an international detective, solves a murder crime by just using his wits.   The Orient Express becomes stuck in a snowdrift.  The next morning Samuel Ratchett is found dead in his compartment.  Only one of the twelve passengers can be the killer. 
I enjoyed "watching" Mr. Poirot in action, as he gathers clues and logically and cleverly solves the case.
*Highly recommend.
Warning if younger readers (not adults) read this: lots of smoking, one man has "pornographic thoughts" as he thinks about his wife (no details are given).
-Borrowed from the library.
