Everyone on This Train Is a Suspect was my first ever “whodunnit” style read and I was pleasantly surprised. At first, I must admit, I considered DNFing it due to what I felt was a very slow start. BUT! I am SO GLAD I stuck it out. The plot grew and morphed into a dizzying web of clues, speculation, and humor. What a wonderful introduction to the murder mystery space. I hadn’t realized until I already started it that this is the sequel to the first Ernest Cunningham story, Everyone In My Family Has Killed Someone. Thankfully you did not need to have read the first go thoroughly enjoy the second. Now the first had made its way up my TBR list.
