The Tornado Struck at Midnight
Summary
The Tornado Struck at Midnight is set aboard a schooner in the Gulf of Paria in Port of Spain, Trinidad. The cast includes a WWII hero, a naive millionaire, a mysterious New York matron, Englishmen, Americans, and several hot-blooded Portuguese beauties. A recently divorced Englishman unexpectedly inherits a fortune. Several investors charter a schooner for a cruise to the Grenadines, hoping to obtain his backing for their investment plans. When his ex-wife suddenly appears to claim her share of his windfall, the investors fear she will put the kibosh on his backing for their schemes. Complicating matters, the ship’s handsome captain finds himself surrounded by a bevy of former sweethearts and sparks begin to fly. After a hectic evening of drinking and romantic sparring, the combatants retire. Later, a woman is found dead in her stateroom. Deputy Commissioner, Major Barnes, must discover if avarice or carnal desire contributed to her demise.
