The Sleeping Car Murders
The Sleeping Car Murders
Described as 'the Graham Greene of France' by The Independent, cult French noir writer Japrisot brings us a murder mystery set in a Parisian landscape of lust, deception and death.
'Sensational' Sunday Times
When the night train pulled into Paris, she was dead. And the riddle began . . .
A beautiful young woman lies sprawled on her berth in the sleeping car of the night train from Marseille to Paris. She is not in the embrace of sleep, or even in the arms of one of her many lovers. She is dead. And the unpleasant task of finding her killer is handed to overworked, crime-weary police detective Pierre 'Grazzi' Grazziano, who would rather play hide-and-seek with his little son than cat and mouse with a diabolically cunning, savage murderer.
With corpses turning up everywhere, the question becomes not only who is the killer, but who will be the next victim . . .
When the night train from Marseille pulls into Paris, a woman is found dead in her berth, setting off a race to find the perpetrator before more victims are discovered. A 1960s cult crime classic from the author of A Very Long Engagement.
