About the event

The Murder on the Orient Express

The Murder on the Orient Express - the most famous mystery ever to be solved by renowned Belgian detective Hercules Pinot. Now, ten years on, Pinot rides the train once more to celebrate his retirement. But when the detective is found shot, stabbed, strangled, beaten and drowned inside his locked compartment, it seems history may have repeated itself. But can all the passengers really be responsible or did one in particular have a locomotive for murder? A whodunnit sure to test ‘ze little grey cells’!
