Somewhere in the hills of Yugoslavia, snow buries the tracks and the Orient Express shudders to a stop, stranding twelve strangers aboard with nowhere to go. By morning a passenger lies dead in his locked compartment, stabbed a dozen times, no footprints in the snow outside his window.

If you will forgive me for being personal—I do not like your face, M. Ratchett.
