While I loved the first book in the series, because it was so unique, I didn't love this one as much.
Ernest and his girlfriend, Juliette, are on a train for the Australian Mystery Writers Festival. Ernest is feeling guilty from his last book and all the things that happened in his family, and is having a bit of writer's block, When someone on the train is killed, Ernest starts to get involved, trying to decipher who the murderer is. He and Juliette have some issues, and the train is a different sort of locked room mystery.
I will continue reading this series, perhaps I just wasn't in the mood for this one.
