**November 1924. The _Endeavour_ sets sail to New York with 2,000 passengers - and a killer - on board .  
**  
When an elderly gentleman is found dead at the foot of a staircase, ship's officer Timothy Birch is ready to declare it a tragic accident. But James Temple, a strong-minded Scotland Yard inspector, is certain there is more to this misfortune than meets the eye.  
  
Birch agrees to investigate, and the trail quickly leads to the theft of a priceless painting. Its very existence is known only to its owner . . . and the now dead man.  
  
With just days remaining until they reach New York, and even Temple's purpose on board the _Endeavour_ proving increasingly suspicious, Birch's search for the culprit is fraught with danger.  
**  
And all the while, the passengers continue to roam the ship with a killer in their midst.**
