A corpse found floating in the ocean
In 1960 Daisy Hayes was asked to replace a physiotherapist on an ocean liner, for just one round trip to New York, at very short notice. Before she knew it she was sailing on the RMS Histria, in the thick of the life on board. With the intrigues and love triangles going on around her, she marveled at the potential for murderous plots on such a voyage. “It’s a good thing,” she told the ship’s detective, “that a liner at sea is the worst place for killing someone. Too confined to do it undetected, and you can’t get away afterwards.”
Then one day at dawn a corpse was found floating on the open ocean ahead of the Histria. The ship came to a lumbering halt, a lifeboat was sent out to retrieve the dead body, and while some early birds watched from the rails, it was hoisted on board. And the corpse turned out to be that of a first-class passenger.
Impossible! Or isn’t it? Our favorite blind sleuth could hardly wait to find out.
“Daisy is confronted with an ‘impossible crime’ mystery on the high sea. Once again she keeps her cool and approaches the matter in a rational manner. Yet isn’t the greatest mystery of all the boundless expanse of the ocean?” — The Weekly Banner
This 52k novel is a stand-alone Blind Sleuth Mystery
An unusual sleuth
Daisy Hayes was born in London in 1922. Her father was a bank manager, hoping for a son, but he had to settle for a blind daughter.
Now what do you do when your child is blind since birth and you have the means to do all that is necessary to help her? You hire a private tutor to stimulate her verbal development in the first years of her life, because you realize how vital language will become for her. Then you send her to an exclusive school where everything is done to develop the minds and resourcefulness of blind girls. There they teach them all these fancy techniques of spatial orientation and mind mapping. And before you know it, your darling daughter has developed an exceptional intellect that just seems to draw murder mysteries like a magnet…
In combination with this unusual sleuth, Nick Aaron enlists the techniques of the page turner to create an enjoyable reading experience: well-written prose, clever plots, and surprising characters. Unputdownable.
