Summary
An international cast of suspects, all passengers on the crowded train, are speeding through the snowy European landscape when a bizarre and terrible murder brings them to an abrupt halt. One of their glittering number lies dead in his cabin, stabbed a mysterious twelve times. There is no lack of clues for Poirot - but which clue is real and which is a clever plant?
Poirot realises that this time he is dealing with a murderer of enormous cunning and that in a case frought with fear and inconstencies only one thing is certain - the murderer is still aboard the train waiting to strike again...
John Moffatt stars as the great Belgian detective in a BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation.

Easy to follow the clever detecting points.
But deploring the unlikely starting point of Poirot knowing Ratchett's real identity. What a pitty.

Fantastic attention to detail!
Fantastic storyline with the drama paying exceptional attention to detail. I listened to first this and then the original book and even though the length is quite different not a single detail is unmentioned. Definitely worth listening to even if you have read the book.

Gave me chills
The movie doesn't do justice to the book.
Agatha Christie strikes again and takes everything.

Perfect
The title of this review says it all.
This is better than any other dramatisation, televised or otherwise (including the recently filmed Suchet version for ITV, which is good by the way).
Great casting - John Moffat delivers an unusually good Poirot - coupled with sincere, believable, enjoyable-to-listen-to acting make this a Murder on the Orient Express that you won't forget.

My Favourite Christie Story
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Because the dramatization makes this even better then a regular audio book. The cast have wonderful voices and the plot grabs you right from the beginning .The train journey is covering exotic places and has an air of luxury about it.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Hercule, I just love him and all his funny little ways.
What about John Moffatt’s performance did you like?
I loved his entire performance! This man really did justice to this role and I listen to this story again and again. He captures the little detective very well.
If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
A Murder On Board.
