Readying her Norwegian sail-training ship, Sorlandet, for a fresh voyage
through the Shetland Islands, Cass Lynch has the shock of her life when
the new third officer is a ghost from her past - the man she thought
she'd left to drown in the Atlantic eleven years before.
Cass has an odd feeling about some of the new trainees: a slick
city-boy, and a brother and sister. As her distrust of the newcomers
deepens, two people go missing and a third is found dead. Struggling to
confront the ghosts of her past, the deceased of her present, and the
man of her future, Cass must out-manoeuvre the killer before she too
becomes one of the victims.
