Cruise to Retribution

In a tiny village in the Adirondack Mountains, fifteen year-old Righteous Markland snaps. Driven by madness and rage, he slaughters his own parents and the three children next door. In a final gesture of twisted glee, Righteous Markland slits his own throat. The year is 1911.

Nearly a century later, Dean Brasil, a once promising psychologist, hosts evening hypnosis shows aboard the luxury cruise liner, The Spirit of the Sea. What begins as harmless amusement for the unsuspecting participants quickly proves to be anything but amusing when, under hypnosis, three complete strangers are accidentally regressed to a place of terror and fear.

Baffled by their common recollection, Dean Brasil searches for the universal thread that binds them to each other. What he finds, however, forces them all to confront a haunting possibility.

Righteous Markland lives.
