New York, 1908. While waiting to embark on the Caronia, the Cunard Line’s famous ocean liner, private detectives George Dillman and Genevieve Masefield are startled to witness the boarding of a man and woman in shackles. They discover that these prisoners are being brought back to England by Scotland Yard to face trial for murder. Over the course of the crossing, while managing purse-snatchers, burglars, card sharps and drug traffickers, Dillman and Masefield come to believe that the captured couple may not be the vicious criminals some consider them.
But pursuing the hunch that they are innocent becomes harder when a murderer strikes on board. Dillman and Masefield will need all their wits to navigate the waters ahead. Dillman and Masefield investigate within a shipboard society divided by class and nationality, with no easy escape before the vessel reaches port.
