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

Brilliant, great fun. Takes the scenario of Murder on the Orient Express and plays it for laughs. A more accomplished performance [than] Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone
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)
Fun and diverting, with a plethora of red herrings
Clever, satisfying, impossible to put down and gloriously inventive. It's fantastic. Books like this are why we love reading (Stuart Turton)
An outstanding and exceptional mystery from start to finish...everything fans would hope for (Jane Harper)
Tricksy riffs on Golden Age mysteries seem to be in vogue, but no one does them with such gleeful elan as Stevenson...Stevenson's background as a literary agent doubtless helped him fashion this fiendishly plotted Murder On The Orient Express update
This crackles on the page. Such an original voice (Jane Fallon)
Laugh-out loud, irreverent, madly ingenious, full of twists and an avalanche of red herrings and wonderful characters let loose in a setting obviously inspired by both Agatha Christie and, with a nod to John Dickson Carr and others, a locked train mystery to boot. Stevenson succeeds magnificently in bringing Golden Age tropes to glorious life but also shows a deep affection for the rules and traditions of the genre, and his unique blend of satire, thrills, and glittering characterisation rings all the bells and more. A sheer delight and if there is any justice, a most-deserving multi future award winner
Benjamin Stevenson is rather like the illusionist Derren Brown, who deconstructs others’ magic tricks only to pull off brilliant ones of his own
Praise for Benjamin Stevenson (:)

Liked the setting and that this one too was self aware but mystery plot and twists were too predictable.

The author is right!! Sequels are hard to write.

Overall keeps you hooked! Love how he keeps sprinkling the writer’s perspective. I guessed the killer before the big reveal- but not because I was keeping a count.

I like the writing style!
