With the train stuck in snow in the middle of nowhere, a killer stalks its carriages, picking off passengers one by one. Unexpected alliances emerge as the passengers realize that those who sleep on the sleeper train may never wake again. Can Roz identify the killer before anyone else is lost? And will she have to miss the birth of her first grandchild to solve the mystery?

Meh

It was okay, never would of guessed the end but it didn’t have a Christmas feel to it. The narrator was great tho!

Decent Christmas mystery

3.5 ⭐️

This Christmas mystery story was written well, the mystery was a good “who done it?”

I don’t have any triggers, but some readers may so, please know that this story has past r8pe events throughout majority of the story, from multiple women remembering past events.

Great story…

I liked it all particularly the accents. The performance was very good. Very, very entertaining!

Very good story and easy read

Very good book. It is an easy read. It goes at an easy pace. It gives you and does what a mystery is supposed to do.

Not as advertised

I thought I would love it, but turns out while it is an ok mystery, it felt like the author was more interested in the social issues that disturb her. While worthwhile topics not sure it it should be advertised as a Christmas mystery.

A bit outside my comfort zone

I usually read golden age mysteries that are entertaining, but don’t often stick with me for very long after I finish them. This book was much more serious and gave me a lot to think about, that being said it was definitely not a cozy Christmas mystery, Serious trigger warnings for sexual assault and birthing trauma.
