From the pen of Edward Marston, the acclaimed author of the Railway Detective series, comes a captivating maritime mystery set in September 1907. George Dillman embarks on the maiden voyage of the Lusitania, a luxurious British ocean liner, from Liverpool to New York. Disguised as a passenger, Dillman is actually an undercover detective hired by the Cunard Line to monitor for petty crimes. However, as the ship sails along, its blueprints are stolen, and a lifeless body is discovered. Determined to unravel the mysteries, Dillman forms an unexpected bond with Genevieve Masefield, a first-class passenger. Together, they uncover explosive secrets aboard the ship, leading them on a thrilling adventure that threatens to shake the foundations of the Cunard Line. The Lusitania, a magnificent vessel, was tragically sunk in 1915 by a German U-boat off the coast of Ireland, claiming the lives of 1,198 passengers and crew. It held the prestigious Blue Riband prize for the fastest Atlantic crossing and briefly became the world's largest passenger ship until the completion of the Mauretania. This captivating series, previously published under the name Conrad Allen, is now relaunched for a new generation of readers to experience the thrilling world of ocean liners and the mysteries that lie within.
