Please note that I read this book via NetGalley. This did not affect my rating or review. “6:40 to Montreal” follows Agatha who had a run-away best-selling thriller (sometime in the past) but has been unable to write another hit. She’s dealing with a huge case of writer’s block and general apathy about her husband, son, and marriage. We don’t know why (it takes a while to get there) but Agatha is desperate to get away from her husband and leave for the 6:40 to […]
