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.

And all the while, the passengers continue to roam the ship with a killer in their midst. ________________________________________________________'A very clever plot and a final twist which will delight Agatha Christie fans.
