Wealthy entrepreneur and famed gambler Morgan Picklewick is dead, and his family and friends are coming aboard the S.V. Adventurous Spirit for the memorial service at sea. As the ship heads to sunny South America, Morganβs heirs will scatter his ashes in the deep blue waters of the Panama Canal. But not everything is as it seems. Morganβs business partner and friend, Roberta Crowley, strongly suspects that he was murdered by one of his children.
Did one of Morganβs children kill their father to avoid being disinherited? As Ellie mingles with the mourners, it seems everyone is hiding a motive or two. Perhaps one of his wealthy business partners saw an opportunity to take a bigger piece of the pie? And what about his ex-wife? Is her diva-like behavior covering a guilty conscience? As Morganβs heirs prepare to seize their fatherβs stake in the cruise line, with devastating consequences for the crew, Roberta gives Ellie her most difficult assignment yet: Identify Morganβs killer before the crew is torn apart and scattered to the four winds, forever.
