Inspector Henry Tibbett and his wife, Emmy, are enjoying a holiday on a friend's yacht, lazily sailing from one little English sea-town to the next.It should all be delicious indolence... except that Henry can't stop thinking about death. Well, one death in particular. The death of a local sailor.And he really can't stop thinking about it when it starts looking as though the drowned sailor is somehow connected to the robbery at a nearby manor house.____________PRAISE FOR THE INSPECTOR TIBBETT MYSTERIES'One of the deftest practitioners of the British procedural detective novel' New York Times'A queen of crime ... her name can be mentioned in the same breath as Agatha Christie and Ngaio Marsh' Daily Herald'Gripping... very neatly worked out' Evening Standard'Intricate plots, ingenious murders, and skillfully drawn, often hilarious, characters' Mystery Scene'Really good detection' The Spectator'Ingenious and elegant, with nary a trace of formula' Kirkus'Patricia Moyes tells great tales in fascinating settings, and her Scotland Yard detective, Henry Tibbett, is perhaps the most believable of anyone detecting in this decade' Los Angeles Times'For classic detection, [Moyes] is far and away best' Times Literary Supplement
