"A stolen heirloom painting - a shipboard murder. Can Simon and the O'Keefe clan unravel the mystery? Poly and Charles O'Keefe have no idea when they board the M.S Orion headed for Venezuela that their journey and their newfound friendship with thirteen-year -old Simon Renier will lead to danger and death. Who among them could be a thief and a murderer?"; 7 ¾" - 9 ¾" Tall; 293 pages;
"Readers of Madeleine L'Engle's novel The Arm of the Starfish will recall Poly and Charles O'Keefe and their amateur detective friend, Canon Tallis. In Dragons in the Waters the O'Keefes are traveling with their scientist father by freighter from Savannah, Georgia, to Venezuela. Among their fellow passengers are Simon Renier, who quickly becomes their friend, and his enigmatic Cousin Forsyth Phair, who with Simon is returning a family heirloom to Venezuela - a portrait of Simon Bolivar. When Forsyth Phair is murdered and the portrait stolen, all the passengers and crew become suspect. Through strange circumstances, several of them have a motive for the murder of the man who, it develops, may be merely posing as Simon's relative.
"In a taut, suspenseful narrative, the mystery is solved with the help of Canon Tallis, but not before the reader is introduced to an array of intriguing characters and to the Quiztano Indians, a society of people whose unique way of life refreshes and enriches all who share it. " .
