Curtain / Murder of Roger Ackroyd / Murder on the Orient Express
Synopsis
This omnibus brings together three of Agatha Christie's most acclaimed Hercule Poirot novels. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd is celebrated as one of the genre's most audacious twist endings. Murder on the Orient Express traps Poirot on a snowbound train with a murder victim and a compartment full of suspects, each with a motive. Curtain, written decades earlier but published near the end of Christie's life, reunites Poirot with Captain Hastings for the detective's final, deeply personal case.
Together the three novels showcase the range of Christie's plotting across her career, from her early breakthrough to her last word on her most famous detective.
