Liner

by Chris Coppel

David Easton believed his life was in complete ruins. He managed to scrape together just enough money for a one-way ticket on the fabulous Oceanis. It was the most luxurious liner afloat and he planned to revel in all its opulent pleasures until in the middle of the Atlantic crossing – he would leap from the fantail, thus ending his pain and misery. The problem was that he never dreamt that while counting down the hours until his death, he would meet Diana.

Despite her traveling with her overly protective parents who hoped to introduce her to a suitable husband while onboard, they managed to find each other. As their affections grew, strange things began happening on the ship. At first, it was just mental images and dreams, but as the days passed their very reality began to bend beyond anything their minds could have imagined.

Together they had to find out what was happening to the Oceanis and how they could find a way to save the great liner and all those aboard her.

Book Reviews

I received this book from Matador via Netgalley for a review. A really good book what I would class as mild horror with a good twist. Dave Easton has lost everything and takes a one way trip on the liner, then things start happening. Could not stop reading. Highly recommended.

An extremely interesting book. The story will grab and hold your attention. I found the plot to be exceptional and the characters were well done. I could not put it down. Definitely a book meant to be read in one reading.

A great thriller in an unusual setting sees the protagonist’s life turn quickly around. The story is a strong mystery/thriller but it was the writing style which captured my attention. Great descriptive language and fantastic dialogue made for an immersive reading experience,

I love ocean liners and the paranormal. Liner by Chris Coppel blends both perfectly.

David Easton is tired of his life and books passage on the Oceanis planning on committing suicide mid-way through the voyage. He didn't plan on meeting Diana. Instead of planning to die, now he and Diana must try to save the passengers and the liner from the supernatural.

Great book! It's reads similar to the Titanic movie with the paranormal thrown in. I couldn't put this down! One of my favorite books of 2021.
