For Scotland Yard's Ian Rutledge, an ex-officer still recovering from the trauma of war, it looks to be a simple case. Yet the Inspector finds himself uncovering secrets that the local authorities would prefer not to see explored. Rutledge pares away layers of deception to piece together a chain of events that stretches from the brooding marshes to one of the greatest sea disasters in history--the sinking of the Titanic. Who is the mysterious woman who may have boarded that ship--and who is the secretive woman who survived it? Only Rutledge can answer those questions . . . and prevent a killer who'll stop at nothing from striking again. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eWatchers of Time\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"One of the best historical series being written today . . .
