After cracking up in Europe, gumshoe Dusty Darling is sailing home to Manhattan. His R&R soon gets shelved when he accepts an urgent assignment from another passenger, a Park Avenue dame with a badly banged-up kisser. Next thing, he's drawn into a curious shipboard death, a shady disappearance, and a rash of jewel thefts—all while battling mal de mer. The doctor's Rx is, "Take two martinis and call me in the morning."A shameless womanizer, Dusty has the hots for the ship's pretty social director. He's also flipped for a beautiful twin with a poignant past, love of string art, and nitwit fiancé. A screwball colonel, stagestruck teen, crafty gigolo, and two shipwrecked sailors add to the high seas hijinks.Set in 1961, this cozy mystery finds the pickled Dusty in a pickle. Just how far overboard will he go for love?
