The Singing Sands
Inspector Grant is on vacation, on a train back home to Scotland for some well-deserved, and much-needed rest, but his vacation is cut short when one of his fellow passengers is found dead. Grant’s suspicions are only deepened by the strange poetry that the deceased had scrawled before his death, and he finds himself drawn into one of the most bizarre mysteries of his career.
