Esperance
The murder seems impossible—two victims drowned in seawater, found in a Chicago high-rise more than 600 miles from the nearest body of saltwater. More murders follow in Rhode Island and Nigeria. The only link between the victims, the murderer, and the woman chasing them all is their descent from a long-sunk ship that carried enslaved people and left behind a terrible legacy of guilt, grief, and a debt that must be paid—one drowning at a time.
