A luxury ocean liner. A widow's inheritance. A secret that could change history.
When modern-day archivist Nora Halewell opens a misfiled maritime logbook in Greystone Manor Library, the familiar pull of time whisks her away to 1909 aboard the RMS Lysandra, a luxury liner bound for Alexandria.
On the voyage, she meets Evelyn Harrow, a young woman burdened by her aunt's locked jewelry box and the whispers of a contested inheritance. But inside the box lies something far more dangerous than family secrets: a coded naval chart pointing to espionage, forged ledgers, and a conspiracy to sell British fleet movements to foreign buyers.
As the Lysandra sails through fog and firelight, Nora and Evelyn must unravel the widow's cipher before betrayal at sea dooms the ship and before Nora herself is discovered out of time.
Rich in atmosphere and steeped in suspense, The Ocean's Cipher blends historical intrigue with the warmth of friendship and courage against impossible odds.
Perfect for readers of Jacqueline Winspear, Tasha Alexander, and Deanna Raybourn.
Series NoteThe Nora Halewell Mysteries follow a modern archivist who travels through history via the enchanted library of Greystone Manor. Each book is a standalone historical mystery, but together they weave a larger story about legacy, secrets, and the fragile threads of time.
