A maritime mystery from Edward Marston, author of the bestselling
Railway Detective series. September 1907. George Dillman sets sail
from Liverpool to New York on the Lusitania's maiden voyage. Posing
as a passenger, Dillman is in fact an undercover detective hired by
the Cunard Line to keep an eye out for petty crimes. But after some
uneventful days aboard, the ship's blueprints are stolen and then a
body is found. As Dillman works to get to the bottom of the crimes,
he makes an unusual friend, first-class passenger Genevieve
Masefield, and the two uncover secrets aboard the ship that prove
explosive. The Lusitania was a British ocean liner that was sunk in
1915 by a German U-boat off the coast of Ireland, killing 1,198
passengers and crew. Lusitania held the Blue Riband prize for the
fastest Atlantic crossing and was briefly the world's largest
passenger ship until the completion of the Mauretania. Previously
published under the name Conrad Allen, the Ocean Liner series is
relaunched for a new generation of readers.
