While this is a sequel to The Three don't expect to pick up with the same characters.
The first 3 days of a cruise on the ship The Beautiful Dreamer are uneventful and average. But something happens on Day 4 and spiral downward over the next few days. There is a small fire in the engine room, eventually the power goes out, the bathrooms stop working, and no way to contact anyone for help. Oh and there is a murderer on board. And the ship might be playing host to some restless spirits. Day Four has the taste of conspiracy theory story, paranormal mystery, and a bit of Lord of the Flies thrown in for good measure.
There isn't much more to be said without giving away the story. I liked The Three better but this was a creepy twisty story that is worth the read.
