About this listen
Penny Küfer has finally realized her lifelong dream by beginning her first week of training as a detective. But instead of the hoped-for well wishes from friends and family, she finds herself disinherited by her class-conscious mother and dumped by her grasping fiancé.
There is only one consolation left to her: the long-dreamed-of trip on the Occident Express, the most luxurious train ever to run on Europe's rails.
But even before the ambitious young sleuth can enjoy her first glass of champagne, she finds herself with a corpse—in her own compartment, no less.
Each book in the series can be read individually and in any order.
“Penny Küfer is a young Miss Marple for the 21st century.”
