London, 1851. The London to Birmingham mail train is robbed and derailed, injuring the driver and other aboard. With the opening of the Great Exhibition at hand, interest is mounting in the engineering triumphs of the railways. But not everyone is celebrating. Planned with military precision, this crime challenges the new police force to its limits and leads Detective Inspector Robert Colbeck to discover a web of murder, blackmail, and destruction. |
