Are you a fan of crime, and mystery thriller books but at the same time, crave meaningful philosophies and funny moments? If so, then this book is for you.

The book gripped me from the start to the end. I felt like I was on that bullet train, watching over all of the characters in action. The characters are well-built, and their personalities are consistent from the start to the end. There were many deep moments, and every page was packed with details. There were also funny moments that made me kind of laugh out loud as well. The author sprinkled the hints smartly here and there. At the time when you read them, you might think that they were random, but they were not. 

However, nothing is perfect. I have to lower my rating a bit because there were plot holes. The ending left a hole in my chest. Although most of the things were explained vaguely at the end; I felt the story was not complete. There were a lot of references to the Thomas & Friends show to the point that I was afraid I would miss many things if I didn't stop reading and started to watch the show. Of course, it was not to that extent but the reference was mentioned that many times to the point I wanted to check the show. Moreover, I know I'm a bit bad here, but come one, my favorite characters :(...

It was a well-written book. As a crime and mystery fan, I recommend this book!
