SynopsisUndercover operative Tor Kelsey just received his make-or-break assignment: masquerading as a waiter on The Great Transcontinental Mystery Race Train -a high-class horse-racing junket for the super-rich. He was told to look out for trouble, but he never could have guessed how much. Because one of the passengers on this elegant excursion is Julius Apollo Filmer -a sociopathic genius of blackmail and criminal corruption. His goal -take the train and its passengers for everything they have. And Tor is the only one with enough cunning and courage to take him onhellip;, BEWARE. MANY PEOPLE ARE NOT WHAT THEY SEEM. So proclaims the ad for the Great Transcontinental Mystery Race, a glittering rail junket that promices not only the opportunity to race a thoroughbred on some of the world's great courses but something more: an intriguing mystery to be enacted on board, which passengers will be invited to solve. But Julius Apollo Filmer, one of the most ruthless operators of the racing underworld, hatches a strange plot of his own. For Tor Kelsey, undercover security agent, a scenario of imaginary mayhem is about to explode into a nightmare of real and bloody murder. . . .
