The Last Train to Harpswell

A mystery for Brindlewood Bay by Jason Cordova.

Join the Murder Mavens aboard the inaugural journey of the Grindlewood Express, a beautifully restored steam train traveling from Brindlewood Bay to Harpswell. Organized by the Brindlewood Bay Historical Society, this event promises fine dining, opulent surroundings, and the company of influential figures.

But when Howard Trumbull is found dead in the locked dining car, a golden train whistle lying next to him, the Mavens must unravel the mystery. As the train speeds through the night, whispers of sabotage and ghostly apparitions stir among the passengers. Was the tragedy caused by the Ghost of the Grindlewood, or is there a more earthly saboteur at work?
