Glamorous and atmospheric with a cast of brilliantly untrustworthy characters' CATHERINE COOPER

It's the escape of your dreams. Until you can't escape.

The infamous Scarmado family invites you onto their ship for a luxury cruise to New York. Your best friend is newly married to the head of the family and desperately needs your help.

The Scarmados are powerful - and ruthless. They know that this new wife could jeopardize their fortune. But you haven't spoken to her for three years. Not since that day.

As threatening notes arrive, you wonder who knows the whole truth of what happened - and how far this family will go to protect what's theirs.

Not everyone will make it to New York alive.
And everyone on the boat has a secret.
Even you.
