Step into the Shadows of History with "Cabinet of Curious Cases"

🕵️‍♂️ Murder. Mystery. Steam. Justice.

A gripping collection of historical crime stories where fact and fiction blur along the railway lines of Victorian and wartime Britain. From locked-room murders aboard steam trains to wartime secrets buried beneath city tunnels, this atmospheric anthology sheds light on forgotten railway crimes through the eyes of pioneering detectives and haunted witnesses.

🔍 Inside the Cabinet:

• Murder on the Darlington Line - A locked carriage. A dead industrialist. The 1827 first railway murder was solved not by a magistrate, but by a railway constable.
• Echoes of Balaclava - A Crimean War survivor-turned-inspector uncovers old ghosts and new betrayals on England's railways.
• Phantom of the Rails - Ghosts stir in Victorian tunnels, where a Liverpool officer tracks a deadly presence from the Isle of Man to London.
• Death in the Dugout - A military mystery erupts at a rural station with ties to Whitehall, sabotage, and secrets buried in the viaducts.
• The Final Watch - During the 1942 Baedeker Raid on York, a constable faces bombs, betrayal, and a file that history forgot.

🎩 Why You'll Love It:

• Perfect for fans of historical detective fiction, railway enthusiasts, and those who love stories with rich period detail and real historical figures.
• Features imagined cases woven with authentic British transport history, including early railway policing, canal rivalries, and the Crimean War.
• Illustrated inserts, character sketches, and maps enhance immersion in the stories.

🛤️ The Verdict is In:

"Cabinet of Curious Cases" is more than a mystery anthology - it's a tribute to the unsung investigators of the steam age. Every case is a window into an era when railways redefined progress... and justice had to keep pace.
