Just after midnight, a snowdrift halts the glamorous Orient Express in its tracks. The train is unusually full for the time of year, but by morning, there is one passenger fewer. An American millionaire lies dead in his locked compartment, stabbed multiple times. With the train isolated by the snow, the murderer must be one of the passengers, and celebrated detective Hercule Poirot, who happens to be on board, is tasked with solving the crime.

Every passenger aboard the elegant train is a suspect, each with a secret to protect. As Poirot begins his investigation, he confronts a web of conflicting clues and deceptive testimonies from a diverse cast of international travelers. Confined by the snow and with a killer in their midst, Poirot must unravel one of the most ingenious plots ever devised, a case that will challenge his understanding of justice and force him to confront a conclusion that is as shocking as it is brilliant.
