The Arctic Railway Assassin

 

The Arctic Railway Assassin is the sixth instalment in the bestselling Adventures on Trains series. Hal and Uncle Nat travel to Sweden, boarding the overnight train to Narvik, the northernmost station in Europe, to see the Northern Lights just before Christmas. But danger is not far behind.

As their train leaves Stockholm, heading north into the endless night of the Arctic winter, Hal realises they are being followed, and they find themselves confronting a dangerous figure from Uncle Nat’s past.

A chilly adventure through the snow and ice of one of the world’s most beautiful and desolate landscapes, The Arctic Railway Assassin is Hal’s most gripping adventure yet!
