Murder on the Safari Star
In Murder on the Safari Star, the third instalment in the bestselling Adventures On Trains series, Uncle Nat takes Hal to South Africa, for a cross-country rail safari. But when one of the passengers is found dead, Hal is sucked into his most dangerous adventure yet.
Uncle Nat is taking Hal on the journey of a lifetime, travelling on the world-famous Safari Star from Pretoria to Victoria Falls. Drawing Africa's amazing wild animals from a spectacular steam train should be enough excitement for anyone. But something suspicious is happening on board. When a passenger is found mysteriously killed inside a locked compartment, it's up to Hal, along with his new friend Winston and his pet Mongoose, Chipo, to solve the murder mystery before it’s too late.
