Pretty, vivacious and alone in the world, Kate Tempest always enjoyed an unexpected adventure. But when a small Italian girl, whom she had been hired to escort across Europe, vanished into thin air on the Paris Express, even Kate was assailed by doubts and fears. Why had no-one admitted to seeing the girl board the train? And which of the two men in Kate's life was desperately trying to kill her? Caught in a terrifying web of betrayal and deceit, accused on all sides of being the victim of hallucinations, Kate found herself questioning which was the friend, and which the enemy--with absolutely no help to hand.
This is one of my favorite audiobooks by the New Zealand author, Dorothy Eden. What I most enjoy about her mysteries is that romance is present but doesn't overshadow the mystery of the story. Here there are two men involved in the life of the heroine, Kate Tempest, as she is trying to find out what happened to the Italian child who disappeared while Kate was escorting her across Europe. As usual in Eden books, the resolution of the mystery slowly unfolds for both the main character and the reader. I rarely guess the endings for Eden books and certainly didn't with The Deadly Travellers.
