Journal Entry 1 by Caro1 from Newark, Nottinghamshire United Kingdom on Friday, June 09, 2006

7 out of 10

When railwayman Jim Stringer moves to the garish and tawdry London of 1903, he finds his duties are confined to a mysterious graveyard line. Perplexingly, the men he works alongside have formed an instant loathing for him. And his predecessor has disappeared under suspicious circumstances. Can Jim work out what is going on before he too is travelling on a one-way coffin ticket aboard the Necropolis Railway? A gripping detective story, fabulously rich in atmosphere and period detail, The Necropolis Railway steams toward an unexpected conclusion.

Not as gripping as I'd been led to believe, but still an interesting read and I will probably read another 'Jim Stringer' novel.
