Also, Murder on the Orient Express was excellent! A must for any AC fan!

Death in the Clouds. It was the first AC book I ever read and I really enjoyed it. I couldn't put it down because it had such a great plot. I've recently bought Death in the Clouds on DVD and so far, it's great, just like the book.

Dumb Witness is one of my favorite Poirot book, it has great setting and mysterious and obscure story. Muder On The Orient Express is a classic, it has such a schocking and surprising ending! You won't ever guess who did it! After the Funeral is also a good book! I haven't read the others. You definitely should read Dumb Witness.
