This thrilling audiobook from international bestselling author Sebastian Fitzek takes listeners on a journey aboard one of the most luxurious trains in the world. It's a nonstop descent into the darkest depths of the human psyche and a father's worst nightmare.

This program is read by award-winning narrator Ray Porter.

In a single night, renowned Berlin defense lawyer Adrian Corvin loses everything that matters to him: his wife, Judith, is brutally murdered, and his five-year-old son, Emil, is kidnapped.

The woman who confessed to the murder lures Adrian aboard the Royal Rail Express, one of the world's most opulent night trains, in which every private compartment has its own bedroom, en-suite bathroom, and lounge area.

There, she presents him with a diabolical proposition. The psychopath promises to return Emil alive. On one utterly impossible condition – one only a madwoman would demand.
