What to expect
A honeymoon cruise turns deadly when a detective uncovers a sinister plot aboard a luxurious ship.
Mysterious deaths plague a luxury cruise ship as it sails from Singapore to Sri Lanka with only two hundred wealthy passengers.
With the ship's security seemingly powerless to investigate and the captain reluctant to alarm the guests, newlywed Detective Bernadette Callahan takes it upon herself to uncover the truth.
Having no authority and risking her own life she races against time, navigating a web of secrets and intrigue among the wealthy passengers.
But as the elegant cruise ship sails into the Bay of Bengal, Callahan and her husband become targets themselves.
A must-listen crime thriller which will keep you guessing until the final page.
