DS Ashley Knight #6
Death on the Norfolk Express
After a devastating crime hits close to home, the tranquil calm of the North Norfolk Railway is broken by a shocking act. Fear grips the tight-knit communities of Holt and Weybourne, and the pressure is on DI Ashley Knight's struggling team to deliver answers.
But as the killer's depravity escalates with each victim, a terrifying question is this a desperate cry for notoriety, or a chilling display of absolute power? With the body count rising along the once peaceful Norfolk line, Knight must find a way to stop the killer before grief consumes them all.

About the author
Ross Greenwood
39 books580 followersI was born in 1973 in Peterborough and lived there until I was 20, attending The King's School in the city. I then began a rather nomadic existence, living and working all over the country and various parts of the world.
I found myself returning to Peterborough many times over the years, usually when things had gone wrong. It was on one of these occasions that I met my partner about 100 metres from my back door whilst walking a dog. Two children swiftly followed. I'm still a little stunned by the pace of it now.
Fifty Years of Fear book was started a long time ago but parenthood and then after working in sales management all my life, i randomly spent four years as a prison officer. Ironically it was the four a.m. feed which gave me the opportunity to finish the book as unable to get back to sleep I completed it in the early morning hours.
I've now written five further books. My second book, The Boy Inside, was picked up by a publisher, and Lazy Blood is also out. All my books are thought provoking, and told with a sense of humour. Reading the reviews has been great.
The first three books are stand alone, however, some of the characters cross over, and you can see how at times, their lives overlap.
Abel's Revenge is something a bit different. It's a modern day love story set against the backdrop of an escalating serial killer. There's a whodunnit element to it, and some smiles along the way.
Shadows of Regret was inspired by my time on the women's side of the jail in Peterborough, and analyses the close relationship between victim and villain. You won't have read a book like it.
I hope you enjoy reading them.

Terry Hardy is ninety and looks forward to his train ride at the North Norfolk Railway station. Little does he know this ride will be his last. He is attacked in his seat by a cloth covering his airways. Detective Inspector Ashley Knight is grieving the loss of her boyfriend Seb. However, she is immediately dragged into a series of deaths involving railways and a serial killer who is enjoying his kills while taunting the police.
This book started off strong and had me hooked immediately. This is my first time reading this series and I enjoyed it so much. The characters were believable and easy to read. This story will have you guessing who the killer is and if you enjoy trains this should be your top pick.
Thank you Netgalley and Boldwood Books for this eARC. All opinions are entirely my own.

This is an excellent series by Ross Greenwood featuring D I Ashley Knight, I just hope that there are more in the pipeline. This has so many twists and turns and nothing becomes clear until right at the end. The one disappointment is that Hector Fade is moving to Liverpool I thought the repartee between him and Ashley brought a little diversion.
Norfolk is my old stamping ground. The north Norfolk coast is a charming place to visit lots of quaint pubs and restaurants. Only last year I had a pleasant weekend staying in Holt at The Feathers Hotel. Unfortunately I did not get round to taking the train.

I’ve read several books by Ross, all good but this was brilliant. Yes helped that I live in Norfolk but.. on Monday we took our grandson to Sheringham Park, first time this year. Walked towards Weybourne station with a diesel train passing us at what I think close to the spot in the book. Got home and read about that spot in the book… Looking forward to reading the rest of the series. Highly recommended.

6 Book in the Norfolk Murder series and it’s good book, nice storyline and keeps you on your toes
nerve-shredding case for DI Ashley Knight, perfect for fans of Mark Billingham, Ian Rankin and Peter James.
It’s a thriller type of book!

This is the first book by DI Ashley knight I've read. But won't be the last what a page turner. This book had me guessing until the very last page. The whole premises of the book is very interesting. I'm very keen to go back and read the rest in the series. Good job Ross!

Read
April 25, 2026Had to read this almost straight through once I received it. This book is seriously convoluted but it all comes together, with DS Ashley Knight and her team after the truth. An extra bonus if you like trains, they feature heavily.

DI Ashley Knight returns in her latest outing, this time to investigate a series of murders connected to Norfolk’s iconic Poppy Line railway.
What follows is a twisty tale of intrigue and suspense packed with the usual twists and turns. Set in the world of steam trains, Ashley and her team race to identify the murderer and put an end to his killing spree.
As ever, the characters feel authentic and believable, and the story pulls the reader along at a brisk pace that keeps the pages turning.
With an engaging cast, a compelling mystery and an exciting conclusion, this is another excellent addition to the Ashley Knight series.

A thoroughly enjoyable read
I have thoroughly enjoyed the majority of this author’s books, I most certainly wasn’t disappointed by this one. Of course, typical me, this is the only book in the Norfolk murders book I have read so far, time to catch up on the others now.
For me, this was a slower paced read which I really enjoyed for a change. Set in Norfolk, my now home County, the surroundings are beautifully described. I certainly know more about steam trains than I did before, as does the author I imagine.
It is a story that spans several lifetimes of inter linked families all trying to outdo their supposed neighbours or enemies, in whatever way they know how. It was a great crime novel, with very unexpected turns throughout the book. I most certainly wasn’t anticipating that ending. Highly recommended, a great read.

6th book of the Norfolk Murders by Ross Greenwood and it did not disappoint!!
DI Ashley Knight and her team are back and this time investigating a man who was bound to the tracks of the North Norfolk Railway!! Only days before an elderly gentleman had died on that very train … is there a connection or is it just a coincidence ~ time will tell.
As per usual Ross Greenwood keeps you guessing throughout and with many twists and turns along the way it was hard to pinpoint who was the victim and who was the villain in this one. The challenges in the personal lives of the team and how they look out for one another is heartwarming even through the most challenging times.
Highly recommend this series, especially if you are familiar with North Norfolk!!
Looking forward to the next one Ross

Thoroughly enjoyed great characters good storyline kept me gripped
June 16, 2026
Ok read. A lot, perhaps too much going on, both as crimes and in the personal lives of the detectives. It felt like overdoing it and I thought it was too drawn out. Twists and turns a plenty, there is history between the main suspects. The book did keep my interest on the whole but did not grab me as much as others have and I wasn't really convinced by the reasoning behind the crimes. I had to push myself to carry on
Thanks to Net Galley for the ARC

Keeps you trying to figure out who the killer is, you finish the chapter but just have to read another one or maybe two. As always Ross has you enthralled in this novel.

Fantastic, as ever. Took me a couple of days to read this, but only because life got in the way, I’d gladly have steamed through it in a day. The world were introduced to of steam trains is powerful and evocative and beautifully took the role of backbone of this story. Ross’ enthusiasm for the trains shines through as does his comprehensive and intricate research, you truly feel like you’re been recruited and shown around the ropes by a guide of top calibre.
I’m going to blame Ross for making me cry early in the story and I’m not quite sure I’ve forgiven you for this. Your description of grief is painfully and sensitively accurate and your handling of the character involved perfect, I feel they were in good hands.
The characters were exquisitely crafted and believable and the effects of prison and the criminal underworld give as a real life accuracy and understanding that comes from your unique insights and experience.
The storyline despite seemingly cut and dry still cunningly managed to take me down a few dead ends and off the track a few times so that the ending was surprising and satisfying.
Thank you for another thoroughly enjoyable and riveting read, I’m only sorry that I’ve finished it and now have to wait for your next.

This was a good story, featuring a steam train and lots of bitter feuds. It's not my favourite DS Ashley Knight novel, but still very good.
Review of advance copy received from NetGalley
First and foremost, a large thank you to NetGalley, Ross Greenwood, and Boldwood Books for providing me with a copy of this publication, which allows me to provide you with an unbiased review.
Ross Greenwood doesn’t so much raise the bar with each instalment of the DI Ashley Knight series as he quietly sharpens it into a weapon—and then dares his characters (and readers) to handle it. This latest ARC is no exception: gritty, relentless, and laced with just enough wit to keep the darkness from swallowing it whole.
From the outset, Greenwood wastes no time reminding us that grief doesn’t grant immunity from duty. DI Ashley Knight, reeling from a personal loss and technically on leave, finds herself pulled back into the fray when a most peculiar case lands—quite literally—on the tracks. An elderly man’s death aboard the North Norfolk Railway appears innocuous at first glance, but Greenwood quickly dismantles that illusion. What follows is a chilling escalation with bodies staged on railway lines, evidence obliterated by passing engines, and a killer whose method is as theatrical as it is terrifying.
This is Greenwood at his most controlled and cunning. The short, punchy chapters act like a metronome of tension, ticking ever faster as the body count rises. Each turn of the page feels like stepping closer to the edge of something unpredictable and unforgiving. He has a knack for making the procedural feel immediate, almost claustrophobic, while never sacrificing the broader narrative scope.
Knight herself continues to be a compelling anchor. Her grief is not a passing note but a weight that informs her every decision, adding a layer of emotional authenticity that elevates the investigation beyond mere puzzle-solving. Yet she never becomes maudlin, showing there’s steel beneath the sorrow, and Greenwood ensures it shows. The supporting cast, as ever, is more than window dressing—each voice distinct, each perspective adding texture and depth to an already rich narrative tapestry.
What sets this novel apart is Greenwood’s ability to take a familiar premise—murder, investigation, pursuit—and twist it into something unsettlingly original. The railway motif is more than a backdrop, becoming a character in its own right; a roaring, indifferent accomplice to the killer’s design. The result is a plot that feels both inventive and deeply unnerving.
For longtime fans, this is Greenwood delivering at full throttle. For newcomers, it’s a stark invitation to step aboard, but don’t expect a smooth ride. Either way, the destination is worth it—and the final reveal hits with the force of a train you never quite saw coming.
Kudos, Mr. Greenwood, for another great police procedural.

Review of advance copy received from NetGalley
Sixth in a series of police procedural/crime novels billed as “The Norfolk Murder Series” bya well known writer whose previous DI Barton books were set around his native Peterborough, but whose parents have a chalet near Cromer – hence inspiring this series.
The series features Detective Inspector Ashley Knight of a Wymondham based Norfolk Major Investigative Team and a group of colleagues around her who are now familiar friends to readers – with Ashley in a side story suffering from grief for the full book and with her colleagues rallying around her.
This is my favourite to date of the series – I particularly enjoy the local colour and this instalment is not jus strong on local colour (like for example the opening book in Cromer and the 5th one in Fakenham) but for me very local colour – being set in and around the wonderful Sheringham to Holt (via the beautiful Weybourne) steam (and diesel) train North Norfolk railway known affectionately as the Poppy Line – with Ashley claims she called it the Norfolk Express (as she grew up with the Polar Express film) which of course gives the book its brilliant title. The author clearly has enjoyed his brush with the trains and writes about the railway with obvious enthusiasm and interesting background. The local colour extends to the wonderful Georgian town of Holt with its independent shops and eateries and even to the village of Cawston (my Norfolk home between the two).
The plot itself has the usual series of escalating murders/attacks – which take place in and around the train line in the main – but unlike some other more far-fetched books in the series does not involve international crime gangs (although there is a one-off hint – perhaps for a future book – of some nefarious deeds not related to the main crimes) but seemingly some decades-old unresolved grudges between some small time local criminals which have suddenly spiralled out of control.
Originally intended as a trilogy this is now the end of the second trilogy, but the author makes it clear more books are likely to follow and I will be looking out for them closely
And as a final comment the book has a cameo effectively off-page appearance by Holt Bookshop – my favourite independent bookshop and where I shall be buying a paper copy of this book post publication.
My thanks for now though to Boldwood Books for an ARC via NetGalley

Review of advance copy received from NetGalley
Death on the Norfolk Express by Ross Greenwood is the very highly recommended sixth procedural in the Norfolk Murder Series featuring Detective Inspector Ashley Knight. This investigation is centered around the steam engines on North Norfolk Railway also called the Poppy Line.
When Terry Hardy, 90, is found dead in one of the carriages on the North Norfolk Steam train, it is initially assumed he had died of natural causes but later determined to be murder. When another man is spotted tied to the tracks and barely manages to free himself before being hit by the train. At the start DI Ashley Knight is dealing with life shattering news but still chooses to work to take her mind off of things. The man tied to the tracks is identified as Luke Dillon, and there is a connection between the Hardy family, Dillion, and others. When another murder occurs it is clear that resentment and anger is still seething below the surface due to events that happened many years ago and this may be the impetus for the current murders.
In this character-based procedural the action follows DI Ashley Knight of a Wymondham based Norfolk Major Investigative Team and her colleagues as they carefully, and methodically investigate the murders and the interconnections between the victims. All the characters are fully realized and familiar to readers following the series. There are further development on personal matters for several characters too. For those new to it there is a helpful list of the team members at the front of the novel.
This marks another well-written procedural in the series. With a fast-paced plot, it is descriptive, atmospheric, and interesting throughout. The investigation proceeds logically, clues discovered, information revealed, and suspects were noted. Even though I had several suspects in mind, the perpetrator was completely unpredictable until the end. Along the way I learned some new information about steam trains and the North Norfolk Line. Although this is the sixth in the series, I think new readers could read this a a standalone novel.
Death on the Norfolk Express is a great choice for those who enjoy character-based procedurals and for everyone following the Norfolk Murder Series. Thanks to Boldwood Books for providing me with an advance reader's copy via NetGalley. My review is voluntary and expresses my honest opinion.

Review of advance copy received from Netgalley
Living in Norfolk this series of books which are set in Norfolk are always one of my favourite reads, Ross Greenwood always describes the areas as they are (without the bodies though). This book is set around the North Norfolk Railway which runs from Sheringham to Holt, stopping off at Weybourne half way along the line.
It's Tuesday the 3rd of June and Terry Hardy is waiting outside his bungalow for a taxi to take him on a journey on board the North Norfolk Railway, he had plans to do something that day, something that had been on his mind for a while but before he had a chance to complete his journey his life was cut short abruptly.
Then on Thursday the 5th of June Stan is a driver on the railway, something that has been his lifelong ambition to do and he loves it, but on that day he is driving the last train of the day back to the depot at Weybourne, he comes across a body on the train track ahead of him. He called out to his colleague who is also his grandson to quickly make an emergency stop. The train makes a quick stop and Stan is quickly aware that this is a train drivers worst nightmare, but as they approached the body something very strange happened, the body disappeared!
The following day Friday the 6th of June
Detective inspector Ashley Knight has recently had some really bad news that has knocked her for six, she doesn't think she will ever operate properly again, how is she ever going to get over her boyfriend dying! All the team at the police station are all doing their best to look after her wellbeing, taking her food and checking in on her frequently.
As you read through this book there are lots of threads in the storyline, mostly involving the crimes that are happening around the railway and some involving Ashley as she has to get on with her job as a Detective Inspector as well as mourn the loss of her beloved boyfriend.
I really loved this book, I think it's his best yet a real page turner, I loved the location and reading about all the places I know so well (Sheringham, Holt, Weybourne, Cromer). Anyone who has visited the area, or lives in the area, will certainly recognise the locations. It's carefully written to keep you guessing until the end of the book.
A well-deserved five-star read from me and I look forward to reading the next novel in this series.

Review of advance copy received from Netgalley
Death on the Norfolk Express is another gripping, wonderfully atmospheric instalment in the Norfolk Murders series — a story that takes the gentle nostalgia of the North Norfolk Railway and cracks it open to reveal something far darker beneath the surface. From the moment a man is found dead on a steam train, there’s a sense that the tranquillity of the Poppy Line has been shattered, and Ross Greenwood leans into that contrast beautifully.
DI Ashley Knight remains the beating heart of the series. She’s sharp, grounded, and quietly resilient, and watching her navigate a case that grows more unsettling by the hour gives the novel its emotional weight. Her team is stretched thin, the pressure is relentless, and the crimes themselves feel bolder, more theatrical — especially when a second man is discovered bound to the tracks. It’s a chilling image, and it sets the tone for a mystery that refuses to let up.
What the book does so well is balance pace with place. The coastal route, usually so peaceful, becomes a corridor of fear, each stop along the line carrying its own secrets. The sense of community — and the fractures within it — adds texture to the investigation, and the rising body count keeps the tension humming.
Greenwood’s strength has always been his characters, and that shines here. Ashley’s determination, the team’s fraying edges, the suspects who never quite reveal everything… it all weaves together into a web of suspense that feels both intricate and grounded. And just when you think you’ve found your footing, the story shifts, revealing a final turn that lands with satisfying clarity.
Atmospheric, tightly plotted, and rich with the charm and shadows of its Norfolk setting, Death on the Norfolk Express is a compelling, nerve‑tingling addition to the series — proof once again that even the most idyllic landscapes can hide the darkest intentions.

Greenwood’s strength has always been his characters, and that shines here. Ashley’s determination, the team’s fraying edges, the suspects who never quite reveal everything… it all weaves together into a web of suspense that feels both intricate and grounded. And just when you think you’ve found your footing, the story shifts, revealing a final turn that lands with satisfying clarity.
Atmospheric, tightly plotted, and rich with the charm and shadows of its Norfolk setting, Death on the Norfolk Express is a compelling, nerve‑tingling addition to the series — proof once again that even the most idyllic landscapes can hide the darkest intentions.

Death on The Norfolk Express
4 stars
Another interesting plot
I read the previous book in this series and did not realise that it was the fifth one in this series. Because of this I struggled to get a feel for all the various police personnel, apart from DI Ashley Knight who is the main character and this detracted a little from the plot for me.
However, as always, the actual story is really good and full of sinister twists and turns. DI Ashley Knight has just discovered that her boyfriend has been killed working abroad and is devastated as she felt that this relationship was going to last.
When sinister events start to happen, all related to The Norfolk Express, she realises that investigating these events helps to focus her thoughts on something other than her grief.
First an elderly man, Terry Hardy, is found dead, alone, in one of the carriages but as he is 90 it is assumed he had died a natural death. Then another local man, Luke Dillon, is tied to the railway tracks but manages to free himself. As Ashley looks into these events, she soon discovers that the first death was a murder and that is a connection between The Hardy family and Luke and his friends from many years ago. Most of the Hardy family have spent time in prison and there was an incident that had precipitated grudges and resentment. When further murders occur it is up to the police to try and piece together events from long ago which have led to the current situation.
As in all of this author's books I kept thinking I knew what was happening but was always wrong! However I think this book was so good to read because of the amazing descriptions of the wonderful steam train and its impact on the neighbourhood. I have been to this part of the countryside and in particular loved Sheringham and its steam train.
I will look out for any future books in this series.

The story:
When personal tragedy strikes, the last thing Detective Inspector Ashley Knight needs is a challenging case. But when not one but two suspicious incidents occur on the North Norfolk Railway, the Major Investigations Team are called in to find the connection.
Their inquiries soon uncover a network of past grudges and complex relationships. But with a dangerous man just released from prison and unaccounted for, Ashley fears there is more to come. Will the team be able to untangle the events of the past in time to prevent another crime?
My thoughts:
“Death on the Norfolk Express” is the sixth book in author Ross Greenwood’s Norfolk Murders series, and in my review of book five I said that there was some hope of happiness in DI Ashley Knight’s personal life… well, scrap that! This book starts with a real bombshell, and poor Ashley is left reeling.
However, the one good thing about the terrible situation is it shows the great bonds that exist in the Norfolk Major Investigations Team, as they all rally round with their support. But Ashley doesn’t have much time to recover, as an unusual case soon comes her way (and to be honest, she’s much better off working with her team than stewing at home anyway!). A man has narrowly escaped with his life after being tied to the tracks of the North Norfolk Railway heritage line. This raises suspicions over the death of an elderly man on an NNR train the previous week, which it soon emerges was murder…
Ashley and team are soon investigating the connections between two families and their friends. Events seem to be focused around the railway, but why? The author leads us on an exciting and twisting path as the story reaches a final dramatic showdown on the rails. Greenwood clearly had a lot of fun researching this instalment, and kept me guessing to the end. This was a really enjoyable entry in the series and apparently the story isn’t over yet – I look forward to seeing where it goes next!

This is the 6th book featuring DS Ashley Knight and, although the main story is self contained, you could do yourself a favour and go back and play catch-up if you haven't already read the previous books. You'll have a better time with the characters and their backstories and development if you do...
So... we start with an old man boarding a heritage steam train, he sadly dies en route. Although he is old and sick there are anomalies and it's deemed worth investigating. Especially so given what happens soon after when there's a near miss with a person tied onto the track. He escapes in the nick of time but flees the scene. And so begins a litany of weird occurrences all occurring around and about the North Norfolk Railway. The rest of which I am leaving you to discover as the author intends.
Ashley also starts the book with her own devastating news which rocks her world but she is the consummate professional and throws herself into work, mostly as a distraction. But there are glimpses of her grief and suffering peppered throughout, complimented by her team rallying around to support her.
And the crime spree - which is what it eventually turns out to be - is both compelling and fascinating, culminating in a cracking ending, with a perpetrator, who I actually didn't see coming, but which also didn't come right out of left field, and which left me wholly satisfied..
Returning characters are all developing nicely and new ones are equally well crafted and all played their parts very well indeed. Pacing matches the narrative all the way through and the short punchy chapters meant that the story got on with itself very well indeed.
All in all, a cracking addition to what is already a well established series. Roll on next time. My thanks go to the Publisher and Netgalley for the chance to read this book.

The latest in the DI Ashley Knight 'Norfolk Murders' series is a sure fire winner. It's got a steam train, it's set in Norfolk, there's murder, there's mystery, a sprinkling of mayhem and it's written by Ross Greenwood - ding ding ding all aboard!
I've been looking forward to this one and it did not disappoint, from the opening chapters it was clear that we were about to embark on a thrill ride - albeit one ambling down through the Norfolk coastline.
Having clearly done his research, the author brings the nostalgia of the old steam train line alive just as swiftly as he kills off his nefarious characters.
DI Ashley Knight and the team seem to have really gelled now into a tight and credible unit as they work to find the link between the murders, and do their level best to stop the killer in his or her tracks before the body count grows even higher.
Ross' books are a genuine delight, which I'll admit is an odd thing to say about a murder series, they somehow blend of joy of something - in this case the sheer love and majesty of the North Norfolk Railway and the volunteers who keep its history alive - alongside a bloody good old fashioned crime thriller / police procedural. Characters are distinct and engaging and the storylines are clever.
I'm a big fan of this series, and John Barton will always have a place in my heart. Highly recommended to fans of the genre - and train nuts alike!
My thanks to the author, Netgalley and Boldwood Books for an ARC in return for an honest review.

Death on the Norfolk Express by Ross Greenwood is a gripping and cleverly constructed mystery that delivers both classic whodunit intrigue and a modern edge.
The train setting works brilliantly here—it creates a contained, high-pressure environment where tension builds naturally and everyone becomes a potential suspect. There’s something timeless about a murder mystery on a journey, and Greenwood makes the most of it, using the confined space to heighten suspicion and keep the stakes feeling immediate.
The investigation itself is engaging and well-paced. I appreciated how the clues were revealed gradually, allowing the mystery to unfold in a way that felt fair but still surprising. There are enough twists and red herrings to keep you guessing, without becoming overly complicated.
The characters are a strong part of the story, each with their own secrets and motivations. While some stood out more than others, the overall cast added to the sense of unpredictability—no one felt entirely trustworthy, which kept me invested in figuring out what really happened.
The pacing is steady, with a good balance between character development and plot progression. It’s not overly fast-paced, but it keeps moving in a way that maintains tension throughout. The final reveal was satisfying and tied the threads together neatly.
Overall, Death on the Norfolk Express is an entertaining and well-crafted mystery that will appeal to fans of classic train-set whodunits with a contemporary twist. It’s a solid, engaging read that keeps you guessing until the end.

Thanks to @netgalley, @boldwoodbooks and Ross Greenwood for the ARC in return for my honest review.
Death on the Norfolk Express is the sixth book in the Norfolk Murders series, but it works brilliantly as a standalone too. This was my first time reading the series and it definitely won’t be my last.
Set against the backdrop of the North Norfolk Railway, the story is packed with atmosphere from the very first page. The steam train setting added such a unique feel to the book and the descriptions of the Norfolk coastline and railway were vivid without ever slowing down the pace. You can really tell the author has done his research, and it brought an extra layer of authenticity to the story.
The mystery itself was twisty, gripping and incredibly hard to put down. Just when I thought I had worked out who was behind everything, another revelation or suspect would completely change my mind. I genuinely didn’t see the final reveal coming.
I also really enjoyed DI Ashley Knight and her team. The personal side of Ashley’s story added emotional depth to the investigation, and the relationships between the team members felt believable and natural. The balance between the police procedural elements, the darker moments and the character development was done really well.
With a compelling mystery, well-developed characters and a brilliantly atmospheric setting, this is a thoroughly enjoyable crime thriller that will keep you guessing until the very end. Definitely recommended for fans of police procedurals and twisty murder mysteries.

This is the sixth Ashley Knight book but can easily be read as a standalone. There's rather a large cast of characters, so reading the earlier books would probably be helpful, but it isn't necessary (but do yourself a favour and read them anyway!). DI Knight is faced with a succession of bizarre deaths, all related to the local train line, at a time when she herself is struggling with a bereavement. The emotional weight in this book is really gripping as families are torn apart, clues lead in all sorts of directions, and the police struggle to make sense of what's going on. There are some ingenious plot twists, with some ambiguous narrative early in the book suddenly making sense at the end in a "why on earth didn't I see that coming?" moment.
Given all the emotional angst in the story, the setting - the North Norfolk Railway Poppy Line - adds some welcome charm and serenity to all the carnage. There's a good amount of detail about the railway and the trains, which adds to the atmosphere of the story. It's always nice to get this sort of local colour, and who doesn't love a steam train?
Looking forward to future books in the series as DI Knight works through her grief and hopefully find some peace in her personal life. She's going to need it if there are many more crimes like this to solve!

Having enjoyed a couple of this author's DI Barton series I jumped at the chance to read an Advanced Reader Copy of a book from his other detective series, especially as this one centres around a heritage railway that includes steam trains.
When the story opens, an elderly man plans to commit suicide on the train he loves and regularly rides on. However, he doesn't get the chance as someone else enters his compartment with murder in mind. This is the first in a series of murders and kidnappings, mostly on the North Norfolk railway that plays a starring role. Meanwhile Detective Inspector Ashley Knight is plunged into grief at the death of her partner, Seb, and has to use work as a solace with help from her colleagues.
The case is a baffling one with lots of local petty crooks who might have an Involvement, with possible revenge for past misdeeds being a motive. The police procedural element is solid, and it's nice to see a police force where the members pull together and Ashley has a supportive and reasonable boss. Such a contrast to all the police novels with protagonists who have drink problems and/or a hate-hate relationship with their superiors! Overall I would rate this as a 4 star read.

Another brilliant instalment in the Norfolk Murders series, Death on the Norfolk Express combines a gripping investigation with the wonderfully atmospheric setting of the North Norfolk Railway’s Poppy Line, which adds a unique charm and tension to the story.
Ross Greenwood keeps the suspense building throughout, with plenty of twists and red herrings and he has a real talent for balancing a compelling murder investigation with believable, relatable characters. DI Ashley Knight continues to be an excellent lead. Her team dynamics feel authentic, and the personal relationships and backstories running through the series add extra depth without ever overshadowing the main plot.
Although this works perfectly well as a standalone police procedural, I would definitely recommend reading the series in order to fully appreciate Ashley and her team’s journey and development.
Fans of atmospheric crime fiction and character-driven procedurals will thoroughly enjoy this one. It’s a fast-paced, immersive police procedural that’s very hard to put down and has left me eager for the next (last?☹️) book in the series.

How I loved reading this book by Ross Greenwood. I am always hooked right from the start with all his books and this one was no different. The best thing was I did not know who the killer was until the end. I was guessing all sorts of people but the killer was the last on my list.
Seriously could not put this one down. A story of murders happening along a train line and on the train, and beautiful steam trains at that. While the first murder was a better way out than planned, it was still a tragic end.
The twists and turns this story had were fantastic. Just when you think you know who is behind it, in comes another angle or character to be suspicious of. The story had me gripped right from the start and while at times it was a gruesome set of deaths, you were caught up a bit with the people not being very good people, not that that justifies their ending of course. The characters were very believable and the book was really well written.
Look forward to the next instalment for Ashley and what the future holds for her. Definitely do yourself a favour and buy this book, you won’t regret it.
