With a Vengeance: A Novel
THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
A haunted past. A train with no stops. Thirteen hours to reckon with the truth.
In 1954, Anna Matheson boards a luxury overnight train bound for Chicago that she’s commissioned, along with a list of names and a heart hardened by loss. Twelve years earlier, during the height of World War II, six people shattered her family’s life. Now, under a false guise, Anna has orchestrated a chilling reunion—trapping each of them aboard.
Her plan is precise: confront the ghosts of her past, unearth long-buried truths, and ensure justice is waiting at journey’s end. But when one of the passengers is found murdered before dawn, it becomes clear that Anna isn't the only one harboring secrets—or seeking revenge.
As the train hurtles into the icy night, Anna must navigate layers of deception, reckon with the cost of vengeance, and come to protect the very people she came to condemn. Because someone on board is determined that none of them—Anna included—reach the final stop alive.

So this book was reallllyyyy slow to start. I was really regretting picking it up then it got interesting .. but only just. It felt like I was reading a new age version of clue! Which was fun at first but quickly became played out. Overall it was just ok. I was excited cause I love Sager’s books, but this one was just ok.
Powerful and good i have literally imagined every character it was like a movie scene every tiniest to tiniest detailing was given by the author all gd sometime
I imagined the characters -
Anna - Anne hathaway
Sal Lawrence - Sevcan Yaşar (turkish actor)
Judd dodge - Paul Sun-Hyung Lee (korean actor)
Dante - Tom felton (Harry Potter's Draco Malfoy)
Edith - queen elizabeth II
Herb - prince harry
Lapsford - Mark strong (making face of arrogance)
Seamus - Alex Neustaedter (,he is young bt older version of him)
Reggie - maybe Ryan Reynolds
I hope someone finds this sense hee
Gd book completed in 15days
thanks Riley Sager
