Fiction. Mystery. Thriller. HTML:

From the bestselling author of Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone, a fiendishly fun locked room (train) murder mystery that "offers a tip of the hat to the great Agatha Christie novel while at the same time being a modern reinvention of it" (Nita Prose) — perfect for fans of Richard Osman and Anthony Horowitz

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, the remaining authors quickly turn into five detectives. Together, we should know how to solve a crime.

Of course, we should also know how to commit one.

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

I enjoyed this mystery set on a luxury train crossing Australia and found it an easy read. The setting was strong and I found the description of the opal mines particularly interesting. Ernest is an engaging and humorous narrator and the story was well clued with a satisfying ending. ( )

I didn't read the first book, but I don't think that mattered despite the frequent references to it - it's written into this book as if the author is the main character. This is another fun take on a traditional mystery trope, Murder on the Orient Express. I enjoy the meta mystery elements and found the characters enjoyable to spend a book with. ( )

I don't mind an author telling me that he's aware he's writing for readers, but in this book, it was done often, and often annoyingly. I gave in to the temptation to buy this book at retail price when I saw it in my local bookstore (99.9 percent of the books I buy are at used prices), and that was fun and impulsive, but I regret doing it because I won't read the book again. I liked his storytelling style; it really pulled me along; but there were two scenes that were ridiculously over the top. So ... don't regret reading it (though I do regret paying retail), and while I wasn't completely satisfied, I do find myself wanting to read the one before it - a title something like 'Everyone In My Family Has Killed Someone.' But this time, I'll borrow it from the library! ( )

This is ok. The plot is over complicated. I found the style of narrating the book writing process as part of the plot to be an interesting idea in the first book. In this one, its just annoying. ( )

After the terrifying events the previous year, Ernest Cunningham has written a book and now he has been invited to take part in a Crime Writers Festival. The bonus is that it is a three-day luxury trip on The Ghan, a train from Darwin to Adelaide. Ernest boards hopefully but he finds his fellow authors quite unpleasant and there are obviously tensions. When a best-selling writer is murdered Ernest finds himself at the centre of a mystery again.
This time Stevenson's focus turns to homage of 'Murder on the Orient Express' and it's great! The detection is suitable opaque, the plot nicely twisty and our anti-hero quite engaging. Essentially this is a book which updates Golden Age writing and plot construction with a modern and very humorous attitude. ( )
