About this listen

Just out of the hospital and totally out of funds, Ralph Leslie jumped at the chance to sign aboard millionaire Marshall Turner's luxurious super-yacht as steward to the passengers lodged in its after house. His job was easy sailing until one sultry summer night the dream voyage suddenly became a nightmare of blood and terror. One ship's officer was thrown overboard. Another was hacked to death with an ax. The killer struck again and again, and the Ella was awash in a wave of panic that engulfed passengers and crew alike. Only one hand aboard, ex-landlubber Leslie, seemed enough in control to stay the bloody hand of the murderer. But he'd have to stay alive to do it, and that wasn't going to be easy.©1998 Joss Recordings (P)2005 Tantor Media, Inc.

Good Story, Poor Recording

I did not care for the narrator and this recording sounds very old, not good quality.

Needs a male reader, not a female reader

The narrator reading this book is not right for the content. The novel is told in the first person by a young man who is a doctor. I think a male narrator would have made this a more interesting novel to listen to.

Plenty of mayhem on a boat that was fitted out to be a yacht. The boat is cursed and there's a homicidal maniac on board. With the right audio narration, it could be a fun listen.
