Description: This is a historical mystery novel for children and middle-grade readers (approx. ages 9–12). The story follows Isobel Petty, an orphan being sent from India to England to live with a distant uncle. While aboard the S.S. Marianna, she witnesses someone thrown overboard — but the ship’s captain insists no one is missing. Isobel and two new friends then set out to unravel two mysteries: identifying both the murderer and the victim before they reach England, all against a historical backdrop reminiscent of classic crime and adventure tales.
