Rome Express

by Arthur Griffiths

On the Rome Express, a train traveling from Istanbul to Paris, a murder occurs in one of the sleeping compartments. The victim is Sir Charles Cartwright, a wealthy British businessman. The passengers on the train include a diverse group of people, including a Russian countess, an Italian opera singer, a French diplomat, and an American businessman. As the train continues on its journey, the passengers become increasingly suspicious of one another, and it is up to the detective on board to uncover the truth and find the killer.
