AN ENCHANTING COZY MYSTERY FROM A BESTSELLING AUTHOR

DOROTHY’S TAKING A TRIP TO LONDON BUT THAT DOESN’T MEAN SHE WON’T BE INVESTIGATING MORE MURDERS

Dorothy falls into conversation with a young man on the train to London. But by the time the train rolls into Victoria Station, he is dead. A helpful doctor says he will take care of the aftermath.

The next day Dorothy checks all the newspapers. But there is no mention of the young man’s death in any of them. She makes inquiries with the police but draws a blank there too.

But Dorothy isn’t someone who gives up easily. Who was the murdered man and why was he killed?

Discover the truth in Dorothy’s most baffling case yet.

A DEAD BODY ON A TRAIN. BUT NOW IT’S LIKE THE CRIME NEVER HAPPENED.

Perfect for fans of Stella Cameron, Faith Martin, Agatha Christie, Frances Evesham, Betty Rowlands, or M.C. Beaton.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT DOROTHY MARTIN

“Fans of the English cozy will put the kettle on, snuggle under a lap rug, and sigh contentedly.” Kirkus Reviews

“Hugely entertaining, gentle mystery with a likeable protagonist.” Intheamazone

“Dorothy is a dear.” New York Times Book Review

“If you're a classic mystery lover, you're sure to enjoy the books of Jeanne M. Dams. Her characters, settings and stories have a depth not often seen in this sub-genre.” Mystery News

“A cozy as comforting as a hot cup of tea and as deliciously spicy as one of Dorothy's mince pies.” Publishers Weekly

THE DETECTIVE
Dorothy Martin, sixtyish widow from Indiana and retired schoolteacher, moves to England shortly after her husband dies. A move they had planned to make together. Like the author, she has a taste for fabulous hats.

SETTING
The fictitious cathedral city of Sherebury, located somewhere in the southeast of England. A small and beautiful town, it is a mix of many real cities and towns in the England so loved by the author. She guarantees that no American fast-food chains will ever crop up on the High Street of Sherebury, where pubs, tea shops, and Indian restaurants thrive.

Dorothy is becoming braver and braver!

Reviewed in Australia on 6 February 2021

After encountering a man who soon becomes a corpse, Dorothy enlists friends and calls in favours to go undercover in what could prove a very dangerous situation. Uncertainty, frustration and fear - Jeanne M Dams keeps the reader guessing to the very end. Another delightful mystery featuring middle-aged super-sleuth Dorothy Martin.

Disappointing

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 November 2020

This is the fifth Dorothy Martin book that I’ve read (I like to read books of a series in the right order) and I have to confess that I was rather disappointed in this one. The beginning couple of chapters setting the scene and ‘introducing’ the body seemed very promising but the subsequent plot development didn’t grab my attention. Another body was later thrown in for good measure (rather unnecessarily, I felt, for all the impact it made ) but in the end I wasn’t convinced by the ‘why’ or ‘how’ of the murder. If this had been the first Dorothy Martin book I had read, I wouldn’t bother to read any more, but as the first four were gripping reads, I hope that Ms Dams returns to form in the next in the series.

Good cozy mystery series!!!

Dorothy takes the train to London, and only she can find a dead body on the train, but when she tries to find out who it was, she's surprised to find out it's not been reported, according to the Police, there was no dead body on the train!

Of course she has to investigate, which means spending time in London with her friends, and getting a job!

Cozy mystery series, all standalone stories but as the main characters evolve over the series, the books are best read in order. I have the next in the series ready to read, thanks to Kindle Unlimited, I can download with abandon!!!

A Worthy Addition....

Dorothy Martin, Anglophile and sometime amateur sleuth, finds herself embroiled in a mystery once again. When her train companion is found dead Dorothy senses that there is more to the matter than meets the eye. With Alan away, Dorothy takes matters into her own hands. Enjoyable cosy crime with a likeable protagonist and a colourful cast of supporting characters. A worthy addition to this very entertaining series.

I enjoyed this novel for the most part. The ending however, seemed rather rushed. There was no clear explanation of his Dorothy figured it out. Also, the involvement of the police seemed to happen with very little effort. More could have been made of that element.
