But the isolation transforms into a claustrophobic nightmare when a wealthy industrialist is found dead in his locked compartment. Trapped miles from civilization with no escape, brilliant detective Adriano Valenti begins a quiet, calculated inquiry. But as he strips away the polished veneers of the high-society travelers, he uncovers a web of ancient sins:
A Novel of Murder, Secrets, and Justice in the Alps Twenty passengers. One stranded luxury train. Two bodies. A lifetime of secrets. When the Simplon Express disappears into a blinding alpine snowdrift, its first-class passengers expect nothing more than an inconvenient delay. But the isolation transforms into a claustrophobic nightmare when a wealthy industrialist is found dead in his locked compartment. Trapped miles from civilization with no escape, brilliant detective Adriano Valenti begins a quiet, calculated inquiry. But as he strips away the polished veneers of the high-society travelers, he uncovers a web of ancient sins:
A betrayed husband consumed by dangerous jealousy.
A charming young man harboring a fatal alibi.
A disgraced physician fleeing a horrific black-market network.
A powerful politician willing to do anything to avoid ruin.
A celebrated actress running from the ghost of her former identity.
As suspicion spreads like ice through the wood-paneled carriages, a second passenger collapses. On this train, secrets are currency, innocence is impossible to prove, and every nervous glance looks like a confession. With time running out before the tracks are cleared, Valenti must untangle a lifetime of hidden guilts before the killer strikes again. Everyone has something to hide. But who has something to kill for? Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie's classic locked-room mysteries, psychological thrillers, and dark, twisty suspense novels that keep you guessing until the final page.
