One missing passenger. One dead body. Is it murder on the Cornish train?

It is a dark and stormy night when Jeff boards the Cornish sleeper train at Paddington station.

As they make their way down the dark British coast, waves crash over the carriages and the wheels rattle in the gale.

Arriving in Cornwall the next morning, Jeff discovers one passenger has vanished into thin air.

The next day, another is found dead on a windswept beach.

Jeff can't accept these are coincidences.

Could he hold the clue to catch the killer who boarded the Cornish train?©2026 J.M. Hall (P)2026 Hodder & Stoughton Limited Amateur Sleuths Animals Cosy Genre Fiction Mystery Small Town & Rural

having read and thoroughly enjoyed JM Halls previous books I was excited to read this new story - and was interested in where his imagination would take me without his 3 amazing retired primary school teachers to amuse and beguile.

Unfortunately for me, I found this very different book wasnt what I was hoping for. I found the plot required a suspension of disbelief which was beyond me, there was none of the humour I have previously enjoyed and I couldn't relate to the characters - or even like or sympathise with them.

the narrator was professional but also seemed to struggle relating to the characters and plot as felt quite monotone at time and didn't (or maybe couldnt) draw me into the story

far fetched
