In the early hours of Christmas Eve, the sleeper train from London to the Highlands derails, along with the festive plans of its travelers. With the train buried in snow in the middle of nowhere, the passengers have only each other, and not all of them will reach their holiday celebrations.

As a killer tries to pick passengers off one by one, former Met Detective Roz Parker can't resist one last investigation, but murder in a locked room is a formidable puzzle for even the most seasoned investigator. As accusations begin to fly, the group of travelers fractures and unexpected alliances form. Can Roz find the culprit before anyone else is lost?

Sunday Evening

Sunday evening marked the 4th night of Hanukkah. I’ve enjoyed each evening this year just for his peaceful it has been. It’s so nice to light the candles while singing the blessing and then getting to just enjoy their glow.

For Sunday night movie night I chose Leave the World Behind on Netflix. This was one trippy movie with a lot of WTF moments, so of course I loved it!

I also finished Finally Mine yesterday!

I just love picking up a Lucy Score book when I need a steamy romance to lose myself in! They are always guaranteed to be fast paced, full of dynamic characters, serious topics and definitely laughter.

I will say that this book had a lot of repeat in it from the first book in the Benevolence series, since it took place in the exact same timeline. This was the only detractor from the story, as I kind of found myself skimming those repetitive parts.
