Six mysterious passengers and seven dark secrets. Who can be trusted?
It's a dark and dangerous journey for the Cobb and Co night mail coach, but when his coach-driver father is injured, young Jem Donovan must take the reins.

But there are six passengers on the coach tonight, each with a secret.
And if Jem can't get them all to their destination by morning, the seventh secret could be deadly ...
