The Devil and the Dark Water | Bookreporter.com

It's 1634, and Samuel Pipps, the world's greatest detective, is being transported to Amsterdam to be executed for a crime he may, or may not, have committed. Traveling with him is his loyal bodyguard, Arent Hayes, who is determined to prove his friend innocent. Among the other guests is Sara Wessel, a noblewoman with a secret. But no sooner is their ship out to sea than devilry begins to blight the voyage. A strange symbol appears on the sail. A dead leper stalks the decks. Livestock dies in the night. And then the passengers hear a terrible voice, whispering to them in the darkness, promising three unholy miracles, followed by a slaughter. With Pipps imprisoned, only Arent and Sara can solve a mystery that stretches back into their past and now threatens to sink the ship, killing everybody on board.

MUST READS


THE DEVIL AND THE DARK WATER
by Stuart Turton (Raven £8.99, 574pp)
Stuart Turton won a Costa First Novel award for his genre-busting debut, The Seven Deaths Of Evelyn Hardcastle.
His second novel is an equally vibrant mix of history, fantasy and detective fiction, set in 1634 aboard the Saardam, a ship transporting a colonial governor of the Dutch East India company to Amsterdam.
Also aboard the ship is Samuel Pipps, a famous detective who helped the governor recover a mysterious scientific object but is now chained in a tiny cell, and Pipps’s bodyguard, Arent Hayes, as huge and ugly as Pipps is small and handsome.

If you’re looking for reading material come Christmas holidays and are in the mood for riveting literary fiction, here are four weighty recommendations. From adventure on the high seas, to a zany comic-book world, to a current Drama/Mystery bestseller and the latest from
Susanna Clarke after 16 years of silence—something for everyone with a yen for quality fiction.
The Devil & the Dark Water
by Stuart Turton
After the success of his first novel,
The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, which was a Costa Best First Novel award winning, genre-bending modern-day murder mystery, you have to doff your hat to Turton for gifting us with the unexpected for his second novel. It may be a mystery once again but, this time, it’s coupled with adventure on the high seas and is set aboard a merchant vessel sailing from Batavia to Amsterdam in 1634. It’s historical fiction, with an extremely strong set of characters, and plays with genres again. There’s the occult, superstition, and maritime lore, all thrown in for good measure.

The Devil and the Dark Water: The ship's cargo is murder and greed | Fantasy Literature: Fantasy and Science Fiction Book and Audiobook Reviews


The Devil and the Dark Water: The ship’s cargo is murder and greed
The Devil and the Dark Water by Stuart Turton
The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, was one of my favorite reads of 2018, a compulsively readable and wildly original murder mystery, an homage to Agatha Christie, with a science fictional wrapper. Turton’s second novel,
The Devil and the Dark Water (2020), is a highly twisty and eerie Sherlockian mystery, set in the seventeenth century on a large ship traveling from Batavia (now Jakarta, Indonesia) to Amsterdam. At first glance it’s not much at all like
7½ Deaths, except in the intricacy of the plot … and the way it mixes together different genres, and the vivid and complex characters who are far more than they first appear, and the insightful and subtle writing … well, perhaps his two books have more in common than I first thought.
