The invitation

Come and solve it together

Most of the year, we post our mysteries through letterboxes, one household at a time. This is the weekend we get everyone in the same room instead.

For three days you'll share a ship with people who love a good murder mystery as much as you do. There's a case to crack over the two evenings, though the best of it tends to happen in the gaps: swapping theories over dinner, comparing notes at the bar. The ship sails from Tilbury to Bruges and back. The ports are lovely. The company is the real draw.

Save your place
  • A shipful of fellow sleuths

    The people are the point. It opens with a welcome reception to break the ice, and from there you've got two evenings and a lot of downtime with a whole ship of people who love an armchair mystery as much as you do.

  • Solve the case as a team

    You won't be puzzling alone. Pull up a chair, compare notes, and see what the rest of the table spots that you'd have missed on your own. The best deductions on these weekends come from a group, not a lone detective.

  • Two evenings of mystery

    The murder mystery plays out across both evenings, with a cast of characters to question and an evidence package to pick apart. Bring a notebook and a suspicious mind.

  • Time to switch off, too

    It isn't all investigating. There's a full day in Bruges to wander, the ship's old-fashioned charm to enjoy, and every meal and drink is taken care of. All you need to bring is the detective work.
