Honey had know she wasn't marrying Weaver for love; but it wasn't only for money or because she was tired of modeling. She liked Weaver; life with him, she had thought, would be gracious and pleasant.

But by the time they embarked on the cruise ship, seven months later, Honey was asking herself in despair: "What have I done?"

There were, however, distractions. There was the furtive gentleman next door - what had HE done? - and his bride, to whom the strangest things happened. She almost missed the ship; she lost her luggage; and her food tasted so strange ...

But when Honey finally found herself staring in horror at the thing she had feared so long, it was someone else who lay lifeless on the cabin floor ...

"For my money she's the top suspense writer of them all. She doesn't pour it on and make you feel irritated. Her characters are wonderful; and she has a sort of inner calm which I find very attractive." - Raymond Chandler
