Everyone on This Train Is a Suspect

De: Benjamin Stevenson

Narrado por: Megan Smart, Barton Welch

6 WRITERS. 5 DETECTIVES. 4 DAYS. 3 WEAPONS. 2 MURDERS. 1 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.

How can you find a killer when all the suspects know how to get away with murder?

Reseñas de la Crítica

'An outstanding and exceptional mystery from start to finish . . . everything fans would hope for.' JANE HARPER

'Sparkling with wit and witticisms about the world of writers and writing, Everyone On This Train Is A Suspect offers a tip of the hat to the great Agatha Christie novel while at the same time being a modern reinvention of it. Leave it to Stevenson to make high-jinx and murder deviously good fun.' NITA PROSE, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Maid and The Mystery Guest

'Clever, satisfying, impossible to put down and gloriously inventive. It's fantastic. Books like this are why we love reading.' STUART TURTON

A wild and wonderful ride . . . I laughed out loud.' HAYLEY SCRIVENOR

'Crazily good crime fiction. Don't miss this train!' CANDICE FOX

Unique POV, very enjoyable.

This is the second book from this author after Everyone in my family has killed somebody, which is also excellent. The mode of writing and style is identical but still very good. The story is captivating and the plot is clever. The only thing that let's this down is the narrator who sniffs repeatedly. This should be an absolute contradiction to hiring someone to narrate audiobooks. It is, without a doubt, THE most annoying thing you can have to listen to. Either get this guy some decongestants or hire someone else, this book is too good for this narrator.

everybody talks about it

This book is very popular the moment online and I was looking forward to it. Little bit disappointed, maybe I should have read the first one . Felt I was missing out on something.
