The Last Passenger by Charles Finch
Young Lennox tries to help out a detective who doesn't want to be a detective find out who killed the passenger in a third class cabin on the last train from Manchester. The big problem is that all the clues to the dead man's identity are missing. They need to find out who he is before they can even find who killed him and why. The background subject for this story is the abolition movement and whether there will be a Civil War in the United States.
The early mystery novels seemed to have more mystery in them. The puzzle is the main thrust rather Lennox's domestic life, even though all those characters appear.
