The Secret of Passenger 23

Every year, an average of 23 people worldwide disappear without trace from cruise ships. Nobody knows what has happened to them. None of them have ever returned. Until now.


Psychological thriller by Sebastian Fitzek


Half a year after her disappearance, little Anouk suddenly reappears. In her arms she is holding a teddy bear that does not belong to her.

Shortly afterwards, police psychologist Martin Schwartz receives a mysterious phone call. He is told to travel to England immediately and board the ‘Sultan of the Seas’. Of all places, this is the very cruise ship on which his wife and son disappeared five years ago. At the time, the police assumed it was a joint suicide. But now his son’s teddy bear has been found on board.


For Martin, a desperate search for the truth begins. The ship sets sail for New York. With 3,000 passengers, a traumatised girl, a distraught police psychologist and a killer on the prowl.


Sebastian Fitzek’s *Passenger 23* is a gripping psychological thriller about loss, dark secrets and a journey from which there may be no return.
