When the steamship Waratah sailed from Durban on the morning of the twenty-sixth of July 1901, one passenger was not aboard. Then when the Waratah passed from sight of the last ship to see her, somewhere off the Wild Coast of South Africa in a winter storm, she carried two hundred and eleven people into a silence that has never, in all the years since, offered a single answer back.

A relaxing cozy crime true story told slowly for sleep, quiet listening.
