The Mystery of the Blue Train features Belgian detective Hercule Poirot in an investigation into a murder and jewel theft aboard Le Train Bleu, bound for the French Riviera. "Nominally Poirot has retired, but retirement means no more to him than it does to a prima donna. Let a good murder mystery come within his ken, and he just can't be kept out of it" (New York Times Book Review).
