Suspense | Mystery Private Eye
Marvin and Angela Baynes prepare to embark on their annual
voyage to Alaska. Yet, as the boat anchor rises from the
ocean floor, their excitement turns to horror as a ghastly
image comes into view: the body of a young woman impaled on
the anchor flukes. When detective Charlie Noble is called
upon to investigate, he enlists the help of Raven, a Native
American sea salvager. They find two more bodies. As the
case unravels, Charlie and Raven make the connection that
all of the dead females are Mexican, most likely young
immigrants who have been murdered. Their investigation leads
them to a suspicious father-and-son team, the Kincaids.
Convinced that they are guilty, Charlie tracks the Kincaids
down, ultimately discovering that they are, in fact, human
traffickers. To further complicate matters, Charlie and
Raven soon encounter a local woman from the harbor, who
startlingly admits to murdering the girls when she discovers
them in bed with the younger Kincaid. Was this really a
crime of passion? Or was this perhaps another twist within a
sordid underworld of prostitution and human trafficking?
It is up to Charlie to piece together the missing
elements of this baffling case—the only way he can save
other young women from winding up at the bottom of the sea.
