While the primary value of this book may be the insight it provides into the formative years of the detective story, The Passenger from Scotland does makes good reading. The plot is well-constructed and remains interesting. The story begins with the boarding in London of the night mail train to Dover for the crossing of the Channel. We learn a little about the passengers as we travel, but we remain somewhat cautious and wary. The murder comes as a surprise and we are puzzled whether it has any connection to the recent diamond theft. [more]
