Death on the Night Train: a 1930s 'Reverend Shaw' Golden Age style murder mystery thriller - Paperback
by Hugh Morrison (Author)
October, 1931: an anonymous telegram summons the Reverend Lucian Shaw, country parson and former army chaplain, to the deathbed of his elderly uncle in the remote Scottish Highlands.
On the London to Inverness night train, Shaw chances to meet a private investigator who is later found murdered in his sleeping compartment. Realising there may be a connection with his dying uncle, Shaw is drawn into a deadly conspiracy reaching to the highest levels of the British establishment. Can he warn the authorities of what he has discovered before he is silenced - permanently? This 1930s mystery thriller is an affectionate tribute to Golden Age crime fiction and adventure stories such as those featuring Richard Hannay or Hugh 'Bulldog' Drummond. The Reverend Shaw books in order are: A Third Class Murder, The King is Dead, The Wooden Witness, Death on the Night Train, Murder in Act Three and Murder at Evensong. The books are self-contained and do not need to be read in order.Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
