Description
Dismissed from his post as a secretary by a formidable American millionaire, Peter Knight’s only hope of winning the hand of the beautiful heiress Betty Manners lies in solving the baffling mystery of the Xenia. The luxurious yacht has been found drifting aimlessly in the Mediterranean, completely abandoned, its passengers and crew vanished without a trace, leaving behind only untouched possessions and a chilling silence.
But the investigation takes a dark and perilous turn when the shadows of the Xenia reach out to claim Betty herself. As Peter delves into the derelict yacht’s secrets, he uncovers perplexing clues—a hidden mirror cabinet, a mysterious topaz, and rumours of a savage, grey-cloaked phantom stalking the empty decks in the dead of night. Racing against time, the amateur detective must unravel a web of deception before the woman he loves is lost forever.
First published in 1920, A Secret of the Sea is a devilishly clever nautical mystery brimming with international intrigue and secret pasts.
