When an old acquaintance invites Ruth Morgan and her grandson to take a working trip on board the Finsbury Flyer-a modern steam train with Victorian charms-Ruth is excited to look over the chef's menu and give advice where needed.
However, before she's had the chance to step foot inside the kitchen, a murder derails the relaxing getaway and turns it into a tragedy. It's clear there's a sinister plan in full swing.
With Ruth's reputation threatening to veer off the tracks, she must use her amateur sleuthing skills to solve several puzzling conundrums: How did the killer reach the victim unseen? Who is the most likely suspect? And why has a seemingly innocent person copped to the crime?
A series of light-hearted and absorbing whodunnits with a fun amateur sleuth. For fans of modern British mysteries, cozy settings, and female detectives.
