About this listen

Young Imogen Burnhope and her maid Rhoda board a non-stop train to Oxford to visit her Aunt Cassandra, who waits on the platform at Oxford station where the train terminates, to greet them. Only they never arrive. All the passengers alight but the two women are nowhere to be seen. The train is searched and the coachman swears he saw them board onto first class, but they seem to have vanished into thin air. The Railway Detective must unravel the mystifying web of their disappearance before Imogen and Rhoda vanish into oblivion for good.

good story

Enjoyable listen but it could have been shorter. Didn't need the last diversion as we already knew how it would conclude

Good in parts

The only issue with the narration for me is that there is no indication of switching from one scene to a different one, so unless you are paying attention it can be momentarily confusing.

The story romps along as usual but wasn’t terribly gripping.

Another Great Case for the Railway Detective.

Excellent storyline very different to the previous books. Great Narration and gripping. Thankfully not semi dramatised like two previous titles. Throughly enjoyable.
