O assassinato
Depois de resolver um assunto no Oriente Médio, o detetive Hercule Poirot (Albert Finney) está retornando para a Inglaterra a bordo do Expresso do Oriente. Durante a viagem, Poirot encontra seu amigo Bianchi (Martin Balsam), diretor da Compagnie Internationale des Wagons-Lits, que é dona da linha. O trem está incomumente lotado para a época do ano: todos os leitos de primeira classe foram reservados. Pouco depois da partida do trem de Istambul, um rico empresário americano, Ratchett (Richard Widmark), tenta garantir os serviços de Poirot por $15.000, já que recebeu muitas ameaças de morte, mas Poirot acha o caso de pouco interesse e o recusa. Naquela noite, o trem fica preso em uma forte nevasca nos Bálcãs. Na manhã seguinte, Ratchett é encontrado esfaqueado até a morte em sua cabine.
Pistas
O exame do Dr. Constantine (George Coulouris) no corpo revela que Ratchett foi esfaqueado 12 vezes. Algumas feridas eram leves, mas pelo menos três delas poderiam ter resultado em morte.
Suspeitos
Os treze suspeitos são:
Motivo
Poirot logo percebe que todos os suspeitos estavam conectados à família Armstrong e tinham motivos para buscar vingança pelas tragédias que se seguiram ao sequestro. Alguns admitem abertamente suas conexões com os Armstrongs, enquanto outros laços devem ser descobertos por Poirot.
