No One Sleeps on the Orient Express - Hardcover

by Irene Hagan (Author)

Board the Orient Express. Order the champagne. Try not to get murdered.

Librarian Iris Quinn has spent fifty years playing it safe. So when a milestone birthday forces her to admit that "someday" has quietly become "never," she does the most reckless thing imaginable - she cashes out her emergency fund and books a first-class ticket on the Venice Simplon-Orient Express.

She expected velvet seats and vintage champagne. She didn't expect a dead passenger, a poisoned flute, and a carriage full of wealthy travelers who are all lying about something.

When the onboard detective decides Iris is his prime suspect, she has to rely on the skills no one ever notices - cataloging details, cross-referencing stories, and spotting what doesn't belong - to untangle forged identities, bitter feuds, and elegantly constructed lies.

To clear her name, Iris will have to outsmart a train full of suspects and discover who she's willing to become when her careful life finally jumps the tracks.

For fans of The Thursday Murder Club, The Maid, and How to Solve Your Own Murder.

Warm, witty, and deliciously twisty, No One Sleeps on the Orient Express launches The Murder, She Booked Series - intelligent mysteries for readers whose best chapters are still ahead.
