Can there be a more romantic and exciting setting for a crime story than a ship on the open sea? Step onto any vessel- even the Staten Island Ferry or a garbage scow- and you experience an aura of romance, adventure, and mystery.

Written by the members of the International Association of Crime Writers, a global fraternity of mystery writers, these compelling stories come from many nations, including Belgium, Denmark, Cuba, Brazil, England, Germany, Spain, France, and of course, the United States.
