Book Description
All four stories in this collection were written by masters of the art of suspense. Baroness Orczy's "The Mysterious Death on the Underground Railway" presents a murder committed in full view of the passengers, yet no one can identify the killer. In Maurice Leblanc's "The Mysterious Railway Passenger," a notorious villain dupes the police and escapes with ingenuity and audacity. Freeman Wills Crofts's "The Mystery of the Sleeping Car Express" features a murderer who escapes from a moving train while his victims and an innocent bystander are locked in their compartment. In Victor Whitechurch and E. Conway's "A Warning in Red," a man's body found on the tracks could not have been thrown out of the train as supposed by the police. How did it get there?
