Everyone On This Train Is A Suspect

Everyone On This Train Is A Suspect

Summary

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

*PRE-ORDER NOW! AN INVENTIVE, HILARIOUS AND ORIGINAL NEW THRILLER FROM THE WRITER OF EVERYONE IN MY FAMILY HAS KILLED SOMEONE, FOR FANS OF KNIVES OUT AND RICHARD OSMAN*

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...
