Book synopsis

A routine train ride turns into a strange mystery when reality television star Edgar Cotton vanishes from Car 12.

Davan Caplan expects another normal shift as a ticket checker on a train bound from San Francisco to Seattle. Alongside fellow employees Jenny Suk and Adam Castillo, Davan focuses on keeping passengers calm, seated, and on schedule. But when Edgar Cotton, a famous and controversial reality star, disappears after leaving his seat, the peaceful ride quickly spirals into confusion.

Edgar's girlfriend, Lynda Buffay, is devastated. Celebrity fan Monika Berger cannot stop asking questions. Her cousin Eric Peters suspects there is more to Edgar than anyone wants to admit. William Shongo, a Congolese soccer celebrity on vacation, observes the situation with growing concern. Meanwhile, the mysterious Koki Washio watches from the background with his own hidden agenda.

As police board the train during an unscheduled stop in Bend, Oregon, the search for Edgar becomes stranger by the minute. Locked rooms, suspicious noises, air vents, rooftop movement, and flickering lights all point to one impossible conclusion: Edgar Cotton may not be missing at all.

He may be hiding.

Now Davan, Jenny, the passengers, and the officers must piece together what really happened before Edgar slips away completely.

A tense train mystery filled with celebrity scandal, hidden motives, and escalating chaos, Citizen Edgar Cotton begins the first book in Davan Caplan: The Strange Incident of Edgar Cotton.
