Publisher's Synopsis
Lady Lucy Revelstoke and her pickpocket-turned-maid Elf are once again embarking on a transatlantic crossing. Also on board are Renata Harwood, star of the silver screen, and her bitter rival, Stella Burke. Roy Armitage may be Renata's husband, but he used to be Stella's man.
Everyone expects these leading ladies to serve up delicious drama at dinner, but things take a tragic turn when Renata's little sister goes missing. Has she been seduced by a cad and hiding out in second-class, as Renata fears, or has the poor girl thrown herself overboard?
Then Elf's friend, stewardess to the Harwoods, is found brutally murdered while wearing Renata's evening gown. From the back, it'd be hard to tell them apart, so was Renata the intended victim?
Lucy's determined to investigate, proving once again that sometimes it takes a savvy woman to unravel the intricate relationships that lead to murder.
