As Stewart McCord, a practical and experienced engineer, takes command of the vessel for its return voyage, unease begins to creep in. A missing sailor. Strange sounds in the night. Shadows that don’t behave as they should. And always the cat—watching, listening, appearing where no living thing should be.
