A ship sets sail with a killer on-board ...1859. A man joins a whaling ship bound for the Arctic Circle.

But when, deep into the journey, a boy is discovered brutally killed, Sumner finds himself becoming a reluctant detective. BBC Two will be adapting the novel as a five-part TV serial, starring Colin Farrell and Jack O'Connell.
