Trouble on the Tracks, Travel is Murder #7

All aboard for murder.

When travel writer Alex Paige boards a cross-country train bound for Chicago, she’s ready for a real vacation: gorgeous scenery, quiet hours, and the bucket-list rail journey she’s wanted to take for years.

And preferably no corpses.

But then a controversial tech CEO is found dead in his locked private room, and Alex’s vacation is over.

The victim’s famous influencer wife is grieving, guarded, and far smarter than anyone gives her credit for. His company’s inner circle wants to control the story. And among the passengers Alex met in coach are people with very personal reasons to hate him.

As suspicion spreads through the train, Alex puts her investigative instincts to work. Her knack for getting people to talk reveals the truth: plenty of passengers had motive for murder.

With a train full of suspects and nowhere to run, Alex must find out what really happened before the final stop. What she discovers is a web of betrayal stretching back decades, and secrets worth killing for.

Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, train mysteries, destination whodunits, and intelligent amateur sleuths, Trouble on the Tracks sends Alex Paige on a cross-country journey where every passenger has a story and one of them is a killer.

Trouble on the Tracks is the seventh in the Travel is Murder Mystery Series. Read it as a standalone, or start the journey with Peril on the Peninsula and ride the whole series into the station.
