A review by saluki
The Mystery of the Blue Train by Agatha Christie

2.0


A slow start to set the crime and suspects and Poirot didn't make an appearance until nearly a third the way in. Maybe Poirot's late appearance and the lack of Hastings made this mediocre fare for me. I'd also guessed the culprits quite early too. Plus I was hoping the story made more use of the train setting... but this is no locked-in scenario a la Orient Express.

It was okay and a relatively straight forward mystery but no brain teaser.
