About This Book

A young woman arrives at a coastal station to join a friend's yacht only to find her friend delayed and later learn the friend's father has been abducted. The pair, aided by a young investigator and local detectives, pursue leads that include a cut‑adrift motorboat, press attention, nighttime visitors, and strange ritual objects. Clues point to a secretive group with ties to island boatmen, and the heroine pieces together the connection that leads to a daring effort to locate and free the missing man. The narrative mixes coastal adventure, sleuthing, and mystery.
