Nine elite guests board the luxurious Black Orchid expecting an unforgettable maiden voyage. Instead, they find themselves trapped in a web of secrets, false identities, old crimes, and dangerous motives.
Among the passengers are a legendary war photographer with a mysterious past, her ambitious assistant, a retired FBI profiler hunting a notorious killer, a suspicious private investigator, and an eight-year-old aspiring detective who notices far more than the adults realize. As a violent storm closes in and hidden agendas begin to surface, the glamorous cruise turns increasingly sinister.
Then the Black Orchid sinks. Six years later, a new investigation returns to the wreckage, determined to uncover what really happened aboard the ship—and why some secrets were worth killing for.
