Its taken many books but we can finally see some character development in Leeming! To be honest the lack of character development in this series doesn't bother me at all because the plot is so good and these are easy reads. This was a real mystery and I didn't see the murderer reveal coming although I was close!

1859. St Mary's Church, Spondon. A little girl playing hide-and-seek jumps into a freshly-dug grave to find a dead man already occupying it. It is the body of a senior director of the Midland Railway. Inspector Colbeck and Sergeant Leeming travel to Derbyshire to investigate.
I am slowly making my way through the Railway Detective now just finished book twelve the usual fast paced book with a twist easy read, another good read onward to book 13.

Enjoyable, although not as fast paced as some of his previous railway detective mysteries.

delightful latest in the railway detective series this time taken the team away to Derbyshire and plenty of red herrings again in search of the killer of a midland railway chairman and feel a slight change in direction with the character of the inspector's wife coming more into play too
