When reporter Amy Thornton probes the death of an investigative journalist, she has no idea how deep and dark the case will get... Wherever there was trouble in the world, one would find Martha McGillivray. The celebrated journalist had a nose for rooting out corruption and a passion for sticking it to the man. Unsurprisingly, then, eventually trouble finds her and she dies of Ricin poisoning whilst travelling on a train to Edinburgh. Back from a spell on a punitive training course for middle-aged male dinosaurs, Detective Inspector Russell McCord is under pressure to crack the case quickly. However, his superiors have forbidden all contact with the press. In particular magazine writer and amateur sleuth Amy Thornton, whom he's heavily leaned on in the past to help him. Yet that won't stop Amy from doing some investigating of her own. In fact, she is keener than ever. Convinced she can throw light on the mysterious poisoning, she decides to follow her instincts in a race with McCord to find the culprit. But being a step ahead of the detective also places her a step closer to danger. LAST TRAIN FOR MURDER is the third standalone cozy mystery by Traude Ailinger featuring sprightly magazine writer Amy Thornton and grumpy DI Russell McCord. The full list of books, in order of publication, is as follows: 1. NEAR MISS 2. HIGH HAND 3. LAST TRAIN FOR MURDER 4. SHIFTING ICE 5. BRIGHT SPARKS 6. FICKLE FORTUNES 7. PARTING WORDS If you like books by Richard Osman, Sabina Manea, Clare Chase and Lisa Cutts, you'll love these novels.

Autorenporträt
After graduating from Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen in 1994 with a degree in Latin and German Language and Literature, which proved rather unhelpful in the job market, Traude Ailinger decided to follow her lifelong affection for all things British and took up residence in Scotland in search of love and adventure. This move resulted in a Diploma in Translation (with distinction in the literature section) from the Chartered Institute of Linguists, London (CIOL) and, in quick succession, three children. After being a housewife for several years, Traude had murder on her mind and wrote her first mystery novel Flammenschatten, which was published in 2015 by the respected German Gmeiner Verlag. Meanwhile, she continued to work as Teacher of EAL (English as an Additional Language) at Strathallan School in Perthshire. Having lived longer in Scotland than in Germany, it felt right to write a mystery novel in English, set in atmospheric Edinburgh. Thus, NEAR MISS was created, soon to be followed by more adventures of journalist Amy Thornton and DI Russell McCord.
