The extraordinary and engrossing debut novel from Sarah Brooks -
available to pre-order now! A woman on the platform with a borrowed
name. A disgraced naturalist determined to discover miracles. A
child with a dangerous secret. Welcome aboard The Great
Trans-Siberian Express. It is the 19th Century and the world is
awash with marvels. But there is nothing so marvellous and terrible
as the Wastelands: a vast terrain that lies between Russia and
China. Nothing touches this deadly wilderness except the Great
Trans-Siberian Express: an impenetrable train built to carry
precious cargo across continents, but which now also transports
anyone willing to cross the irresistible Wastelands. The train is
never short of travellers. After all, the train is completely safe.
Except . . . something happened on the last journey. No can
remember exactly what, not even Weiwei, the famous 'child of the
train' who was born on the Express. The Trans-Siberia Company
insist everything has been fixed. But the old rules are changing at
a remarkable speed, and as secrets and stories of this curious cast
of characters begin to unravel, something uncontrollable appears to
be breaking in . . .
