Book Review of The Christmas Train

The Christmas Train
reviewed on + 3352 more book reviews


Not one of Baldacci's usual mysteries, but definitely his inimitable style. Humor, a little pathos, well rounded characterizations, a plot that keeps leading you on - and a lot of train information. What more could you ask for - well what about a boa constrictor, a protagonist who needs to find out its not all fun and games, a large, wonderful singing train employee, a rather vague retired priest, a bar tender who is quite successfully a black version of Elvis Presley - and that's only scratching the surface.
