Title: The Phantom Train

Pitch:

"The Phantom Train" by Gary J. Rose, bestselling author of "Hitting Rock Bottom," is a gripping and historically relevant thriller that delves into the dark secrets of World War II. Set in the present-day, the story follows FBI agent Jeannie Loomis, a strong-willed and dedicated law enforcement officer who embarks on a perilous journey to uncover a hidden treasure that holds a dark secret.

When Jeannie stumbles upon a double homicide case, it leads her to a shocking discovery—a hidden room in a former Waffen SS death camp guard's lair. Unraveling the truth, Jeannie learns that the guard had been entrusted by Reichmarshall Herman Goering to conceal one of Hitler's elusive phantom gold trains. These trains carried the stolen valuables seized from Jewish victims during the harrowing Final Solution.

With the assistance of Mossad, the Israeli intelligence agency, Jeannie and her team join forces to locate the train before it falls into the wrong hands. However, their pursuit is not without obstacles. Modern-day Nazis, determined to reclaim Hitler's treasure for their sinister agenda, relentlessly pursue the same leads. As the race to uncover the train's whereabouts intensifies, Jeannie discovers the presence of dangerous moles within the FBI, adding an element of suspense and betrayal to the story.

"The Phantom Train" weaves a tale of twists and turns, taking readers on a heart-pounding adventure through Europe's hidden corners. Against the backdrop of meticulously researched historical events, including the Nazi death camps, this gripping novel sheds light on the atrocities committed during World War II and their ongoing relevance today.

Caution: "The Phantom Train" contains chapters that confront the chilling realities of the Nazi death camps, providing an unflinching portrayal of the horrors endured by its victims. It serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of remembering history and the ongoing efforts to recover the lost treasures of Hitler's reign.

With its captivating blend of historical accuracy, suspenseful storytelling, and a strong, determined protagonist, "The Phantom Train" promises to captivate readers, both fans of Jeannie Loomis' previous adventures and new fans seeking an enthralling and thought-provoking thriller.

The Writer: Gary Rose

I’m an optioned screenwriter who, in a previous life, served as a police detective, mastering the delicate art of negotiating hostage situations. Retirement led me down a different path—teaching and writing—a journey that began with my first non-fiction book, which became an Amazon best-seller. That success ignited my passion for storytelling and introduced the world to my indomitable protagonist, FBI agent Jeannie Loomis. Believing that the ends justify the means, Jeannie has become the heart of a gripping 16-novel thriller series. My historical fiction script The Beautiful Beast was selected as a quarter-finalist in the 2025 PAGE competition. The Phantom Train script was selected in 2024… Go to bio
