Bridges and Bodies: A Ben Time Mystery

The second book in the Ben Time Mystery series Bridges and Bodies follows Ben Time as he finds himself in a position to investigate the not-so-coincidental deaths of two railroad men. Ben Time is a locomotive engineer and the union chaplain fighting to demonstrate Christian principles while working with modern-day railroad men on a day-to-day basis. One of the murdered railroad men was alive and well the day before the body was found even working with Ben directly. The passage of a single night changed everything when Ben spots a ghostly apparition drop from the side of the local haunted railroad bridge. Much to Ben’s surprise another body is discovered under the railroad bridge five miles West. As Ben looks into the deaths of these men he hopes to exonerate several friends and coworkers who are on the suspect list one of whom he had just had an opportunity to pray with. But solving these crimes proves to be a daunting task for the trainman as he begins wondering if he’ll be able to clear his friends after all. In this thrilling sequel to Murder and Misconception T.A. Huggins once again compellingly depicts modern-day railroad life and the ensuing conflict experienced by men living with Christian principles in a secular environment as readers are drawn into Ben Time’s world and the mystery of the bodies under the bridges.
