Book Review: "The Last Passenger" By Charles Finch

It's 1855, as an unknown young man found brutally murdered w/o any clues of foul play in London.
Lenox knows instantly upon examination this is not a normal nor natural death.

The story plops around from Lenox's personal life to the investigation with multiple characters being put into play.

A central focus erupted with the slave trade and the consequences during this historical time, along with two side step conversations about marrying for love which wasn't embraced as a priority at that time, as well as thoughtful reflection with another character named Hollis.

Injustice, friendship, and hardships are all taken in and presented here with The Last Passenger.

It was a bit hard for me to keep track of it all with a multitude of characters and conversations but nevertheless, a good read.
