All aboard. It’s murder on the Valentine Train in a heart-racing mystery from Amazon Charts bestselling and Edgar Award–nominated author Jess Lourey.
Mira James is heading to Oregon by rail with two of her best friends to attend a PI conference. Even better, she’ll see Johnny, the love of her life, who’s in Portland for an internship. It’ll be scenic, swift, and safe. Until it isn’t.
When a winter storm brings the train to a dead stop in the Rockies, Mira discovers that a woman in the next cabin has been murdered, and her husband and child have vanished. Rumors of an escaped convict do nothing to ease the passengers’ frazzled nerves. To Mira, every one of them is a suspect.
Trapped in a snowbound train with only two people she can trust, Mira has to solve a baffling disappearance and track down a killer—if she isn’t derailed herself. Permanently.
Wow. I had no idea my heart would be ripped out today. I did not see this ending coming!!
Yet another book that I jumped into and then realized I was in the middle of a series! But once again….its fine! Man, I’m lucky. The author references past things, but she does it in such a way that you really dont feel like you’re missing out on anything. It just makes me want to read the other books so badly now!
The whole cast was so colorful and interesting. My favorite had to be Mrs Berns. Why am I picturing patti lapone when I read her bits?? This cozy mystery is funny witty unique and also might make you cry. It made me cry.
I highly recommend this book, but I believe the first book in the series is called May Day.
Have you read any of Jess Loureys’ books yet? Is she on your TBR?
