The mystery of the Blue Train: An unforgettable classic by Agatha Christie

The Mystery of the Blue Train: A Hercule Poirot Classic

Luxury, secrets, and a blood-red gem converge in this gripping masterpiece by the Queen of Crime, Agatha Christie.

When the legendary Blue Train pulls into the station at Nice, a terrible discovery is made. Ruth Kettering, the daughter of one of the world's wealthiest men, is found murdered in her compartment. Her face is disfigured beyond recognition, and her priceless inheritance—the world-famous Heart of Fire rubies—has vanished.

The list of suspects is as opulent as the train itself: a resentful husband, a charming but dangerous scoundrel, a beautiful dancer, and an enigmatic antiques dealer. But the killer has made one fatal mistake. Traveling on the very same train is a small man with a waxed moustache and an extraordinary mind.

Hercule Poirot is officially semi-retired, but the call of justice and the lure of a perfect crime are impossible to resist. From the foggy streets of London to the sun-drenched vistas of the French Riviera, Poirot must navigate a web of greed and high-society scandals to unmask a murderer who thinks they have committed the perfect crime.

Narrated with sophistication by Jennifer Cramer and produced by Golden Age Mystery Audio, this classic detective story remains one of the most atmospheric and puzzling cases in the Poirot canon.
