Passengers want to know: Is it safe to fly with people dropping dead at 35,000 feet? Fiona Forester Chesterfield, a government fraud investigator, is contracted to keep tabs on one particular Sydney crew member, her neighbor Isabel Quince Lewis.

Seasoned investigator Inspector Einar Magnusson boards the ferry in search of solitude, only to find himself thrust into a deadly game of cat and mouse.
