Synopsis
The two ladies didn't want their husbands to die, but they did want to survive them for the cruise. It would be such fun, just the two of them on a boat, decently widowed at last. But the sea holds hidden perils for women of a certain age. The author won the Booker Prize for "The Elected Member".
