En savoir plus sur le livre

A glamorous cruise on a luxurious ocean liner takes a deadly turn in this latest mystery from the “Queen of Suspense” and #1 New York Times bestselling author. Celia Kilbride, a gems and jewelry expert, seeks refuge from public scrutiny after her fiancé's humiliating arrest before their wedding by lecturing on the Queen Charlotte. Onboard, she encounters the wealthy eighty-six-year-old Lady Emily Haywood, known as “Lady Em,” who plans to donate her priceless emerald necklace to the Smithsonian after the cruise. However, just three days into the voyage, Lady Em is found dead, and the necklace is missing. Suspicion falls on various individuals: her seemingly devoted assistant Brenda Martin, her lawyer-executor Roger Pearson and his wife Yvonne, both invited on the cruise, acclaimed Shakespeare scholar Professor Henry Longworth, and Alan Davidson, a guest scattering his wife's ashes at sea. With a growing list of suspects, Celia teams up with friends Willy and Alvirah Meehan, who are celebrating their forty-fifth wedding anniversary, to uncover the truth. Unbeknownst to her, Celia is putting herself in grave danger as she races against time to solve the mystery before the ship reaches its final destination. Mary Higgins Clark delivers her signature suspense in top form.
