Professor Bernice Summerfield: The Secret Of Cassandra (#2.01)
By David Bailey

The Secret Of Cassandra
From The Back Cover...

A vicious war between two nations is coming to a head, and the final movements are centred on the sailing ship Casssandra. Along with a very strange cargo, Cassandra carries Captain Colley, a man with his own sad burden, and the paranoid General Brennan, a women convinced that her actions will end the war once and for all. Their grim mission goes entirely to plan, until the Cassandra gains an extra passenger - a shipwrecked archaeology professor by the name of Bernice Summerfield.

Sensing something is very wrong aboard the ship, Bernice's snooping brings her close to a terrible truth. Soon, Bernice doesn't know who to trust, and she can no longer be sure if anyone is who they claim to be...

Memorable Quotes

Bernice: "I am, in all probability, going to die here. Alone, unloved and thoroughly, thoroughly annoyed!"

Bernice: "Isn't my dying mania going to be a bit more original than that?"

Colley: "You might be happy watching one more life be extinguished. It might make no difference to you, but not me."

Bernice: "It would be a pretty dreadful dinner party if we didn't make small talk, wouldn't it?"

Colley: "Brennan's in intelligence, everyone's the enemy to her."

Sheen: "Don't frying pans and fires mean anything to you?"
