***THE TIMES CRIME BOOK OF THE MONTH, FROM THE AUTHOR OF INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER EVERYONE IN MY FAMILY HAS KILLED SOMEONE***
'Brilliant, great fun. Takes the scenario of Murder on the Orient Express and plays it for laughs' THE TIMES, CRIME BOOK OF THE MONTH
'Clever, satisfying, impossible to put down and gloriously inventive. It's fantastic' STUART TURTON
SIX WRITERS. FIVE DETECTIVES. FOUR DAYS. THREE WEAPONS. TWO MURDERS. ONE TRAIN . . .
When the Australian Mystery Writers' Society invited me to their crime-writing festival aboard the Ghan, the famous train between Darwin and Adelaide, I was hoping for some inspiration for my second book. Fiction, this time: I needed a break from real people killing each other. Obviously, that didn't pan out.
The program is a who's who of crime writing royalty:
the debut writer (me!)
the forensic science writer
the blockbuster writer
the legal thriller writer
the literary writer
the psychological suspense writer.
But when one of us is murdered, six authors quickly turn into five detectives. Together, we should know how to solve a crime.
Or commit one . . .
But how do you catch a killer, when all your suspects know how to get away with murder?

A brilliant follow up to Everyone In My Family Has Killed Someone. Poor Ern is plagued by people, including famous mystery authors, dropping like flies during a writing conference on a train. Just like Stevenson's previous book, this book will have you chuckling at the fun poked at some of the most famous murder mystery tropes.
I received a copy of this book for free from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
