Very close to a gay,power fucking Murder on the Orient Express as Mitch opens another case along with his pants. ( )

This is actually really good. Not life changing, but surprisingly incredibly good. Like a tightly written and entertaining movie that is somehow much better than it has any right to be, like how they made them in the 80s, like Elvira: Mistress of the Dark or Back to School. Like, "Okay makers, make this thing, it doesn't have to be good or anything, crank it out, it'll make enough money" but they didn't listen and made something decent and it's shocking. But I don't really know what else I can say that won't gross out my coworkers that may read this, ha.

A fun read - Mitch's trip on the Royal Scotsman train is interrupted by the discovery of a body. This causes Mitch to start one of his unique "investigations" which leads him of course to several opportunities for man on man sex. The plot is more complex than the previous story in the series, which is not a bad thing. An over-the-top spoof and a real entertaining story. ( )

The Secret Tunnel transports us into the world of trains, theatre, gay royalty and fascists. It also has to have one of the few instances of the anal sphincter being used to transmit morse code. In this case, S.O.S, but the possibilities are endless as a means to transmit information without detection.

The gay amateur detective, Edward “Mitch” Mitchell, has his mind constantly in the gutter, thinking, dreaming and sometimes even starting to have sex with just about everybody he comes across, friend and foe alike. So, be warned, if infidelity turns you off and you like your man-on-man sex, romantic, warm and emotional, steer well clear. Yet, there is love for his fellows and not just the sexual kind: fondness, shared loyalty and even respect.

Once again, editors let the writer down, not picking up an instance where Lear wrongly used the name of the main villain instead of one of his accomplices.

The increase in complexity of the murder solving part of the plot prevents it from being as easy or as enjoyable read as the first book in the series, but it’s still an amusing way to pass a wet afternoon.
