Description by Author:
Nat and Abigail have decided that Canada is
their best bet for a clean start with their new baby. It’s the place where
American and Scottish accents go relatively unnoticed, and newcomers can get
lost in a crowd. The problem is that Canada doesn’t have a transcontinental
train, so they have to sneak back into the USA to get to the West coast.
They catch a night train heading over the
mountains, and are delighted to find it’s one of the new Palace cars, designed
to allow people to sleep, and get the remote areas behind weary travelers. The
train is packed full of English butlers heading west to join a new employment
agency. They hope to make a fortune providing the New World nouveau riche with
the Old World class, which they are desperate to buy for their children.
When the train is stuck in a rock fall, they
find that a woman has been attacked in the night, and her moonstone stolen. Our
heroes decide it’s best to solve the mystery rather than face too many
questions.
They unravel a mystery which has evil
tentacles reaching across oceans. Will they be caught up in them too?
About
the Author:
C.A.
Asbrey is a writer of mysteries, and a fan of all things Victorian and obscure.
A former member of law enforcement in Scotland, she developed a deep interest
in early forensics and detection methods, particularly during the 19th Century,
working in the field. This extensive research into early detectives and the
tools available to them acted as the foundation for developing the characters
in her The Innocents Mystery Series. She likes her mysteries twisty, complex,
and intricate; through a fog of history and a touch of light humor.
