More Description From the Agatha Award-winner for Lifetime Achievement: "An excellent detective novel in the best British tradition . . . superbly handled." --Columbus Dispatch
Scotland Yard's Henry Tibbett and his beloved Emmy have been traveling and are now headed back to England, where Henry is on the ferry out of Harwich. It's a trip Emmy's been looking forward to--but her excitement flags when it becomes clear that the cabins are all spoken for, and she and Henry will have to bed down in the "sleeping lounge" with a motley collection of their fellow travelers. By morning, one traveler has lost both his life and his fortune in Dutch diamonds. That's bad enough, but a few days later, when Emmy's unpacking at home, she makes a discovery that puts both Tibbetts in real danger. It will take the combined analytical skills of the CID Chief Superintendent and his sharp-witted wife to get them free of that terrible boat ride . . .
