    Inside the novel

    Ambition boards the train. Fear stays for the ride.

    Ten Little Guppies follows ten entrepreneurs convinced their new app will bring fame and fortune. The mood is bright when they settle into their private car. Then the atmosphere shifts. Celebration hardens into fear, and every alliance starts to crack.

    Set against winter beauty and high-stakes ambition, this is a layered story about the price of success and the danger of misplaced trust. When loyalty is tested, no one can be sure who will make it to Montreal alive.

    • Quebec City to Montreal

      Ten driven entrepreneurs share a private luxury car, ready to celebrate the app they believe will make them famous.

    • Snow, secrets, suspicion

      As the winter landscape rolls past, old rivalries and buried personal secrets surface. Then one of their own is found dead.

    • Who reaches the city alive?

      Trust evaporates. Motives blur. The greatest threat may already be sitting beside them on the train.

    Books in this lane

    Sci-fi comedy

    For readers who like a sharp grin

    Tension lands harder when wit is in the room. Expect human foibles, dry humor under pressure, and characters who reveal themselves in the cracks between ambition and panic.

    Books in this lane

    Sci-fi romance

    For readers who feel the stakes

    Connection and longing raise the cost of every secret. When relationships bend under suspicion, the emotional current is as dangerous as the plot twists around it.

    Scott Evans Douglas

    His fiction stays grounded in realism and character-driven storytelling, written with empathy for the messy, resilient ways people try to hold on.
