The Four-Fifteen Express

De: Amelia B. Edwards

Narrado por: Jason Miller

A fog-shrouded train. A vanished passenger. A truth that defies the living.

When William Langford boards the 4:15 express on a damp December evening, he expects nothing more than a quiet journey to his friend’s country estate. But his solitary compartment is unexpectedly intruded upon by a familiar traveler—a reserved, pale-faced gentleman carrying a heavy deed-box and an unsettling air.

By the time the train slows into Blackwater station, the stranger disappears into the swirling mist. And then—he is gone. Not merely from sight, but from the world.

Langford soon learns the unthinkable: the man he shared the compartment with died months before. His arrival at Dumbleton Manor sets off shock, whispers, and a chilling realization that reason cannot explain.

Driven by duty—and haunted by what he saw—Langford becomes entwined in a mystery that bridges the natural and the supernatural. What begins as a polite Victorian travel tale unravels into a ghostly investigation, a financial scandal, and a murder buried beneath brambles, secrets, and time.

Amelia B. Edwards delivers one of the finest railway ghost mysteries of the Victorian age—a tale steeped in cold iron, lamplight, and a chilling question that echoes long after the final moment:

What travels with us when justice has not yet been served?

Perfect for fans of M.R. James, Charles Dickens’ ghost stories, and Sherlock Holmes-era intrigue.

Narrated with atmospheric depth by Jason Miller.
