This is part one (of two) your audiobook for audiobook for November 2021 — my reading of “Peter Crane’s Cigars” by V. L. Whitechurch, from the collection Thrilling Stories of the Railway first published in 1912. Whitechurch was a priest, railway enthusiast and prolific author, as well as a founding member of the Detection Club. In this story, as is the case in all of his mysteries about trains, the detective is the eccentric railway expert Thorpe Hazell.
