The Midnight Train: The Midnight Train Series Book One

Every night, the 12:47 leaves Velmer Station on schedule. Every night, someone doesn’t make it to the next stop — and no one remembers they were ever there.Three years ago, Nora Voss’s sister vanished from the seat beside her on a late-night train. No CCTV. No witnesses. No record she’d ever boarded at all. When Nora insisted something had happened — that her sister hadn’t simply run away — she was committed to a psychiatric facility for eighteen months, her career destroyed, her credibility gone.Tonight, an anonymous message brings her back to 12:47.Within minutes of departure, the man beside her vanishes — mid-sentence, leaving behind a still-warm coffee cup and a locked briefcase. No one else on the train remembers he existed. As the train presses on through the dark stretch between Velmer and Coldbrook Junction, Nora realizes she’s not imagining it this time. She’s the only one who can see what’s happening — and the only one who might be able to stop it.What she uncovers is a fifty-year-old secret buried beneath the tracks: a mechanism that doesn’t just take people. It takes the memory of them — and Nora’s own resistance to it may be the reason she’s been targeted all along.With a six-year-old boy whose drawings predict the impossible, a conductor who’s kept a hidden record for twenty-two years, and a sister who may still be alive, Nora has one night to prove she was never crazy — she was the only one paying attention.Perfect for fans of psychological thrillers with a supernatural edge, slow-burn family mysteries, and stories where nothing — and no one — is what they first appear to be.
