Funeral Train, Loewenstein - B

                        The follow-up is set a few months later, at Christmas 1935. A train is derailed just outside of Vermillion and over a dozen die. The inquiries are headed up by local Sheriff Temple Jennings, and a detective from the railroad. The night of the crash, a local woman is murdered not far from the scene. The two events might be related. The ensuing investigation confirms that they are. The first in the series did a better job of evoking the Depression than this one which seemed  focused on the investigation.
