When the first rays of dawn arrive, a knock sounds at her door, and she knows her entire world is about to turn upside down. But she won't be the only one affected.

Jessica Bannister isn't cut out for life in the slow lane. She's not the kind of journalist who is satisfied with writing about heatwaves or interviewing vocabulary-limited sports stars. No!

Even when she takes a relaxing cruise to wind down, on the hunt for nothing but a little holiday romance, long-dead spectres have other ideas. But despite the spine-chilling situations the young newshound inevitably ends up in, she's determined to solve the mysteries of the past and lay to rest the souls of the restless dead who have haunted the waves for decades, even centuries. All secrets will be thrust into the light under her inquisitive eye, and though fear may grip her and horrors may lurk around every corner, she'll stop at nothing to get her story.
