The Excursion Train by Edward Marston
Faced with what initially appears to be a motiveless murder, Colbeck is intrigued by the murder weapon - a noose. When it emerges that the victim had worked as a public executioner, Colbeck realises that this must be intrinsically linked to the killer's choice of weapon. However, the further he delves into the case, the more mysterious it becomes.

This is how history mysteries should be: fine storytelling, marvellous characters and a sneaky mystery, too' Sherlock Magazine
