Here’s a little about the book:

Cleveland, Ohio, 1915

After being the only witness to a socialite’s death, Aurora Murphy’s quiet life as a department store clerk turns into a far more deadly one. When someone breaks into her apartment and leaves a horrifying threat, Aurora goes to the one and only person she can trust– her coworker, Leo. Can she get to safety before they both become victims?

Leo Greene doesn’t usually stir up trouble. As department store security, he’s the one who puts an end to any mishaps. But when Leo’s coworker comes to him begging for protection, he realizes she brings more trouble than he ever imagined. They board a locomotive to escape the danger, but as the train chugs along, Leo must stay one step ahead or risk losing the audacious young woman he has come to care for.
