Review of Mystery Junction

I quite liked this little murder mystery which feels like a classic crime novel from the 1930s. Sydney Tafler, always an underrated presence, plays a crime author travelling by train who becomes stranded at a remote snowbound station with an escaped prisoner for company. A whole host of supporting characters keep you guessing as to the identity of the nefarious ones, and despite the short running time, there are plenty of twists and turns along the way. The ending's a cop out, but until that point it's fun enough.
