Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
How do you catch a killer, when all your suspects know how to get away with murder?
THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED FOLLOW-UP TO 2022'S MOST ORIGINAL MURDER MYSTERY, EVERYONE IN MY FAMILY HAS KILLED SOMEONE
When the Australian Mystery Writers' Society invited me to their crime-writing festival aboard the Ghan, the famous train between Darwin and Adelaide, I was hoping for some inspiration for my second book. Fiction, this time: I needed a break from real people killing each other. Obviously, that didn't pan out.
The program is a who's who of crime writing royalty:
the debut writer (me!)
the forensic science writer
the blockbuster writer
the legal thriller writer
the literary writer
the psychological suspense writer.
But when one of us is murdered, six authors quickly turn into five detectives. Together, we should know how to solve a crime.
Or commit one...
Critic reviews
'Clever, satisfying, impossible to put down and gloriously inventive. It's fantastic.' (Stuart Turton)
'An outstanding and exceptional mystery from start to finish...everything fans would hope for.' (Jane Harper)
'Sparkling with wit and witticisms about the world of writers and writing, Everyone on This Train Is a Suspect offers a tip of the hat to the great Agatha Christie novel while at the same time being a modern reinvention of it. Leave it to Stevenson to make high-jinx and murder deviously good fun.' (Nita Prose)

Great narrator, fun mystery
Although this author has a relaxed, humorous style which I love, his main character Ernest is beginning to annoy me! He’s a little too smug but Barton Welch’s superb narration saves the day and makes an otherwise irritating character likeable. This series lacks the cleverness and suspense of Stevenson’s other books but it’s an enjoyable listen.

Didn’t want it to end
Excellent book. The narration as well as the story. So good, with lots of twists. Can’t wait for the next one!

Must-read for fans of the first
As a sequel skeptic I was quickly reminded of the strength of Stevensons’ character craft - the narrative voice is just as down to earth as in the first book, builds a satisfying web of clues, and still shocks you along the way. A master of playing with the format and subverting expectations in all the right places.

Sadly dsappointed. Not as good as EIMFHKS
Love Barton Welch as a narrator. His intonation and text interpretation is brilliant. Scottish accent made me chuckle but then I'm rubbish at accents, so I will let that slide!
Now, the story. I devoured EIMFHKS. I couldn't stop listening. This book I just couldn't get into. It was disjointed and just didn't flow. I couldn't follow it and it didn't make sense.
I absolutely love the writing style and it hasn't put me off reading other books by Benjamin Stevens, I was just really disappointed after pre-ordering EOTTIAS, it just didn't live up to my excited anticipation.

A 21st Century 'Who Dun it'.
I was so pleased when I saw this author was due to release a new book. His writing style of this and the previous EIMFIAM is different to most classic 'Who dun its' and after listening to a lot of Harlen Coben and Anthony Horowitz recently I had to get my brain into gear for fear I was going to miss a clue even when they are often flagged as clues 😁.
This is definatley not worthy of the poor 1 star that Ernest got and the narration was great.

Great sequel
If you liked the first one, you’ll really enjoy this. Still playing by (and with) the rules of murder mystery writing

Dire
Manages to be smug without ever being clever. Charmless. Charmless. Charmless. Charmless. Charmless. Charmless. Charmless.
