Summary
When the engines finally met, there was a deafening clash and the Brighton Express twisted and buckled, tipping its carriages on to the other line. It was a scene of utter devastation.
October 1854. As crowds of passengers rush to make the departure of the London to Brighton Express, a man watches from the shadows nearby, grimly satisfied as the train pulls out of the station. Chaos, fatalities and unbelievable destruction are the scene soon after when the train derails on the last leg of its journey. Could it simply be a case of driver error? Detective Inspector Colbeck thinks not.

Thoroughly Enjoyable!
I loved this story. Fascinating details about steam railway travel and a great who done it with an unexpected twist. If you like historical based crime stories I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. It’s an entertaining yarn. I loved the two detectives. Looking forward to hearing the other books.

Hard to spot the clued which is good!
There are surprises all the way through, amazing how the sentiments if a book covering events in the 1850’s are able to fit so well with modern times, cleverly written keeping the reader in suspense almost all the way to the end. Well read and hard to put down

Easy listening.
Certainly not high literature but a good tale nonetheless. The reader’s voices for characters were all very similar but his voice did seem to suit the period setting somehow. It’s a good book to listen to when a break from other longer reads is needed and I’m sure I’ll listen to others in this series as I actually grew quite fond of the characters!

Life in Brighton is certainly not dull.
Well read, plenty of red herrings to keep you guessing right into the last chapter. Thoroughly enjoyable.
