AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A timid woman travelling to the north of England is locked in a railway carriage with two gentlemen - an old and a young man - who begin to discuss plots, murders etc. Terrified she seeks a guard's assistance at the first stop - only to hear them say they were discussing a plot for a weekly newspaper serial. A little overdrawn. (PB)
