Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A routine train ride becomes a celebrity scandal, a police investigation, and a strange journey through Oregon.Davan Caplan expects a normal shift as the ticket checker for Car 12 on a train traveling from San Francisco to Seattle. The passengers seem ordinary enough at first: Lynda Buffay, her famous boyfriend Edgar Cotton, Congolese soccer player William Shongo, celebrity fan Monika Berger, her skeptical cousin Eric Peters, and the quiet but mysterious Koki Washio.Then Edgar Cotton vanishes.What begins as a missing passenger case quickly becomes something far stranger. Edgar is not simply gone. He is hiding, running, and using every trick he learned from his reality television career to stay ahead of the police, the train staff, and the people trying to find him.As the train makes an unscheduled stop in Bend, Oregon, Davan, Jenny Suk, Conductor Adam Castillo, Officer Joan Sevens, and Officer Mohamed Prideux try to keep order while the mystery spreads from Car 12 to Car 11, across the roof of the train, through air vents, into town, and eventually toward Sisters, Oregon.But Edgar's disappearance is not only about fame or panic. Koki Washio knows the truth: Edgar owes gambling money to a dangerous boss in Tokyo, Japan. While Lynda struggles to understand why Edgar abandoned her, Eric suspects the worst, Monika tries to believe in people, and William just wants his vacation to continue, Edgar's reckless escape turns into a public scandal.From a locked restroom to a snowy rooftop chase, from a Bend café to the Old Flame Bar, from a bicycle ride to a crop duster escape, the strange incident grows bigger than anyone on the train expected.A mystery-adventure trilogy about celebrity privilege, hidden debts, trust, consequences, and one train ride that refuses to stay on schedule.
