With A Vengeance – Riley Sager

In 1954, a young woman rents a train, once owned by her father, to gain retribution against those she blames for the downfall of her family.  Once onboard, however, she finds that there is someone else on board, someone who has their own agenda and is planning to pick off the passengers one by one.  As the train ride continues through the night on its way to Chicago, can she unmask the killer before everyone else is dead?

Riley Sager switches things up with his latest outing, With a Vengeance.  He ditches the possible supernatural elements he has toyed with for his last couple of novels and instead heads back in time, to the early days of World War II and its aftermath on his characters into the mid 1950s.  With nine books in as many years, Sager has certainly become a reliable and annual presence on my bookshelf.
