Synopsis
In this brain-teasing follow-up to the smash-hit debut, The Crossword Murder , P.I. Rosco Polycrates returns to discover that--up, down, or across--S.O.S. spells danger... When a famous Hollywood actress and her friend set sail off the coast of Nantucket Island--and never return, it sounds like foul play to P.I. Rosco Polycrates and his paramour/crossword editor Belle Graham. They are sharpening their pencils and their minds to solve this case. But the truth is not so easily spelled out, and it will take all their sleuthing skills to fill in the missing blanks.

At last puzzle fans have their revenge...super sleuthing and solving for puzzle lovers and mystery fans." -- Charles Preston , Puzzle Editor, USA Today "Adroit word play and high society intrigueEan enjoyable, complex solution and likable protagonists...Clever." -- Publishers Weekly
