Just after midnight, a snowstorm stops the Orient Express dead in its tracks in the middle of Yugoslavia. The luxurious train is surprisingly full for this time of year. But by morning there is one passenger less. A ‘respectable American gentleman’ lies dead in his compartment, stabbed a dozen times, his door locked from the inside . . . Hercule Poirot is also aboard, having arrived in the nick of time to claim a second-class compartment — and the most astounding case of his illustrious career.

Summary
Overall This is one of Agatha Christie's most famous works. It is about a murder that occurs in a train, only 12 possible suspects and the famous Hercule Poirot will go to the bottom of the truth. Very smart plot, a masterpiece.
Violence There is some descriptions of the wounds inflicted in the body of the murdered passenger. Very mildly put, not very explicit.
