Would Murder on the Orient Express work as a book-club pick? I like having something we can disagree about afterwards.

Niamh, agreed on keeping the pitch short. I want a reason to try it without knowing every turn.

Murder on the Orient Express is one I am weighing up. The description has me curious. I would rather know the mood than the whole plot.

Roisin, would be nice to come back to this thread once a few more people have given it a go.

For anyone considering Murder on the Orient Express: I would like to see this in the six with a few very different choices around it.
