And danger is all around…

When a brutal murder takes place, Clemence and Vicky are forced to band together. Yet Clemence’s own dark secret must stay hidden at all costs…

Gripping, page-turning and dramatic, Night Train to Marrakechbrings the ancient city of Marrakech, and the swirling secrets of the wild desert and mountains that encircle it, vividly to life.

Praise

‘With all the vibrant colour and intoxicating scent of the kasbah, Night Train is set in Morocco at a time of dangerous political instability. Family secrets stretching back generations begin to unravel like an old kelim, in a story that is pacy and utterly engrossing. It’s a book to lose yourself in, a sensory immersion in a world of stunning beauty and extreme danger. Dinah Jefferies is at the top of her game.’
