The Last Passenger by Charles Finch

This video was a challenge, as in there are not a lot of stock video footage from Victorian times. Luckily, the story revolved around a train arriving into Paddington Station, which there are old photos of, and there are stock video of old trains.

I decided that giving it a sepia look, to put it in the proper timeframe. Then I used color to accentuate certain things, like the blood around the hand. The music here helps to add to the tension around the action.

This story is one in a series, about a detective set in Victorian London. I have read all the books many times and really enjoy them, so this was extra special for me.
