Having read 17 of the Railway detective series in my opinion this was by far the best. Apart from some action at the beginning , the story mainly followed the investigation. However, it also had a few other interesting storylines that cropped up on a regular bases throughout which enhanced my opinion of this book . It was a riveting historical police procedural that I had difficulty in putting down. An excellent read.
