Everyone On This Train Is A Suspect

Summary

READ THE INVENTIVE, HILARIOUS AND ORIGINAL THRILLER FROM THE INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF EVERYONE IN MY FAMILY HAS KILLED SOMEONE


How do you catch a killer, when all your suspects know how to get away with murder?

'The best thing I've read in ages' STUART MACBRIDE


'I absolutely LOVED it. Engaging, entertaining and charming' MARIAN KEYES

----

When the Australian Mystery Writers’ Society invites six authors to a festival aboard the Ghan – the famous Darwin to Adelaide train – it’s a who’s who of crime writing royalty. And me! (The lowly debut author.)

But when one of us is murdered, six authors must become five detectives. This should be easy. Aren’t we all experts in whodunnits?

Unfortunately, that also makes us experts in how to commit murder. And, when there’s been one, another’s sure to follow.

Someone has to solve the case. But can I really outsmart the experts, and catch the killer?
