Mary Debenham

Mary Debenham (Daisy Ridley) is an Englishwoman aboard the Orient Express. She was a governess in the Armstrong household, as well as Colonel Armstrong’s lover, so she is one of Hercule Poirot’s main suspects. Like her calm and collected demeanor, her clothing is modest and without flash.

Hector MacQueen

Pierre Michel
