A tender romance with a ticking time bomb at its heart. There’s a bomb on this train. It will explode before you reach your final destination...because you murdered my wife. University professor Tom McKeever has just lost his wife Adelita to cancer. But the more he thinks about it, the more he realizes she didn’t have to die. The faculty and administration of the university where he teaches in Mexico played a major role in causing her death.

He plans to gain revenge by blowing up the train, killing all those who have wronged him and everyone else on board… including himself.
