The Ferryman's Ledger — A Declan Crowe & Ivy Sinclair Mystery ebook

A night ferry leaves the harbor at Greywick carrying forty-one passengers into the fog-covered dark of the strait, each one a stranger to the next, each one carrying secrets they never intended to share. By the time the ship reaches the halfway point of its crossing, one of them is dead, and the killer has nowhere left to go. Investigators Declan Crowe and Ivy Sinclair boarded the Solitude expecting a quiet night of routine surveillance. Instead, they find themselves trapped aboard an aging vessel with a murderer hidden among the very passengers they must question, in a floating world with no escape until dawn. As the fog thickens and the hours stretch on, old debts, buried grudges, and long-hidden connections begin to surface, turning every calm face on board into a possible suspect. A stolen satchel. A locked maintenance door that should never have opened. A stranger traveling under a false name. Each clue pulls Crowe and Sinclair deeper into a web of lies spun by ordinary people pushed to extraordinary extremes. With only a handful of hours before the ferry reaches shore, and a fog too thick to call for help, Declan and Ivy must piece together the truth before the killer disappears into the crowd at the next dock, forever slipping out of reach. Tense, atmospheric, and full of quiet menace, this closed-circle mystery keeps you guessing until the very last confession, as two investigators learn that on a crossing like this one, everyone is hiding something, and not everyone will make it to the other side.
