Selle talvise kogumiku lugudes uurivad kuritegusid enamasti Hercule Poirot ja Miss Marple, kuid esindatud on ka Christie teised detektiivid. Nagu alati, näitab Christie ka siin end suurepärase inimpsüühika tundjana ning loo ülesehitamise tõelise meistrina. Just inimeste tundmine teeb Christie lood nii paeluvaks, et nende korduvgi ülelugemine valmistab kindlasti puhast naudingut.
Mis saab jahedal ja pimedal talveõhtul veel mõnusam olla, kui soojas toas koos Christie detektiividega salapäraseid juhtumeid lahendada ja pärast kergendatult hingata, et maailm on jälle turvalisem paik. Või vähemalt mängida autoriga kaasa, et see tõesti nii on.

„Noch ein Beweis für Agatha Christies unerschöpfliches Genie!“ The Guardian „Es ist sehr leicht zu morden“, versichert eine Reisebekanntschaft dem Londoner Polizisten Luke Fitzwilliam. Der hört sich etwas ungläubig ihre Geschichte von gleich vier angeblichen Morden im beschaulichen Wychwood an. Die Dame meint zu wissen, wer dahintersteckt. Sie ist auf dem Weg zu Scotland Yard, um von ihrem Verdacht zu berichten. Wenig später ist sie tot. Und der gar nicht mehr so skeptische Fitzwilliam beschließt, den seltsamen Geschehnissen auf den Grund zu gehen.
Nach einigen Mühen hat Hercule Poirot ein Abteil im Kurswagen Istanbul – Calais des Luxuszugs ergattert. Doch auch jetzt ist ihm keine Ruhe vergönnt: Ein amerikanischer Tycoon ist ermordet worden, der ganze Zug voller Verdächtiger. Und der Mörder könnte jederzeit wieder zuschlagen. Eine Aufgabe, wie gemacht für den Meisterdetektiv.
