Arrival in Constantinople

The Taurus Express arrives at Hayda-Passar only five minutes late. Poirot crosses the rough Bosphorus and drives to the Tokatlian Hotel. There he finds a telegram recalling him to London on urgent business, forcing him to abandon his planned sightseeing and book a berth on the Simplon Orient Express that very night.
