Boarding the ship was like entering a dream
for Marcia Colfax. At her side was the man she loved; awaiting them was a long
delayed happiness. But now a bloodstained knife has slashed her plans to bits.
Now her dream has become a nightmare. One man is dead, a knife buried deep in
his back. After the second of the group is found dead, fear spreads throughout
the ship, as do rumors that Nazi diehards lie among the rescued.
Now her voyage to happiness has become a
race against death as the murderer readies to strike again.
Shortly after the end of the war, an
American hospital ship rescues passengers and crew from a sinking
Argentina-bound freighter. It's soon discovered that one of the group has been
murdered, apparently by one of his own companions. After the second of the
group is found dead, fear spreads throughout the ship, as do rumors that Nazi
diehards lie among the rescued.
