Publisher's Synopsis
Times have been hard lately for Alaskan p.i. Cecil Younger; chicken-coop surveillance was not what he had in mind. Enter Sonny Walters of the Great Circle Cruise Lines, whose first-class ship has a first-class problem: unsavoury rumours about the ship's doctor, not good for business when most of the passengers are already ill. More than that he will not say, but with free rein, free passage and unlimited bar tab, Cecil's not about to quibble. But when the well-heeled but elderly passengers start going belly-up, it's clear that this cruise is no rest cure. Euthanasia is one thing; but is this murder? Shamus Award-winning John Straley writes mysteries of unusual depth and moral complexity, and The Angels Will Not Care is his best yet.
