Only six major rail bridges cross the Mississippi River and connect one half of our country to the other. When one of them collapses as a freight train is crossing, the FBI sends agents Hush Hanson and Carolyn Lang to investigate. Hush and Carolyn suspect a bomb, but there are no clues to suggest who planted it. Meanwhile, at an Alabama army depot, a military train carrying a deadly cargo begins its journey west. This train must cross the Mississippi before its cargo becomes unstable - and then another bridge goes down. As more bridges go down and the plight of the doomsday train intensifies, it becomes ever more obvious that Hanson is being set up to take a fall as part of some bureaucratic political intrigue within the FBI. "Intelligent, expertly detailed, and highly suspenseful, Train Man is a speeding entertainment locomotive." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"Train Man is reminiscent of The Day of the Jackal and Taking of Pelham One, Two, Three--a real old-fashioned, edge-of-your-seat, up-all-night thriller. This is Deutermann at his best. Reads like a great novel, feels like a great movie. --Nelson DeMille
The BookcassetteŽ format is a special recording technique developed as a means of condensing the full, unabridged audio text of a book to record it on fewer tapes. In order to listen to these tapes, you will need a cassette player with balance control to adjust left/right speaker output. Special adaptors to allow these tapes to be played on any cassette player are available through the publisher or some US retail electronics stores.
