A Christmas Railway Mystery by Edward Marston

3.0

3.5 stars

While the murder in this book was gruesome especially with how it was described at times and what was done to the body after the murder. It got to be a bit much at times I’m not going to lie. The actual detective work was very long and drawn out and had me not really enjoying the story very much. So much focus was put on the character's personal lives that I didn’t know about because of the fact that this was the 15th book in a series which I didn’t realize until I started reading it.
I did find it interesting how they were able to connect everything together and finally figured out who did it after thinking it was a handful of other people first.

If you’ve already read most of the series I can see how you would love this book, it just wasn’t one that kept me captivated throughout all of it.
