Slaughter in the Sapperton Tunnel: The bestselling Victorian mystery series | Edward Marston

‘A master storyteller’ Daily Mail A goods train speeds through the Sapperton Tunnel, but disaster strikes before it can reach the other side as it collides with an unusual blockage on the tracks: seven sheep penned in place.

Rydall has many enemies: a churlish squire, a scheming principal and a local ruffian who always manages to evade the law. But, as Colbeck will soon discover, the man also has a closely guarded secret of his own...

Set in the Spring of 1862 and written in a simplistic easily understandable way I found this story engrossing. The characters were described so strongly by the author it wasn't long before you either loved or hated them. Despite so many suspects it remained easy to follow the investigation and with a full description of the villages around Stroud it had a homely feel despite the nature of the crime that had to be solved. A thoroughly good read.

Not the best start to #NovelNovember due to having to focus on unexpected work related tasks.

Did get 4hrs 38 minutes reading spread across these two books, and 207 pages. Getting on for a quarter of the way through Slaughter in Sapperton Tunnel, and just over halfway through Moby Dick.

Tove_Reads Not familiar with this series. 3y
Andrew65 Good series, cozy series style. Based on Scotland Yard deceive in early days of the railway that solved murders linked to railways across the U.K. I really enjoy them. Some great characters. @Tove_Reads (edited) 3y
