Uma Noite no Expresso do Oriente

The Italian backdrop seems almost like a character itself. I wonder how much the author drew from real locations or personal experiences to craft this atmosphere.

The blend of romance and mystery kept me guessing but also made the story feel more alive. How did the author balance these elements without overwhelming the narrative?

The train setting adds a sense of adventure and intimacy. I'm curious whether the author had a specific reason for choosing this mode of travel or if it was purely for the storytelling potential.
