Synopsis
Sanders, a British former district officer in Africa, is sent to investigate an insurance matter involving a sunken ship off Africa's 'coast of skeletons', a stretch of seaside desert where the ocean has receded, leaving rusting ships that were wrecked in decades past. Sanders sails on the ship of a captain who, to get rich quickly to impress his spoilt, unfaithful wife, is tempted to aid some criminals in seeking some sunken diamonds, but the captain's accomplice hides a dark secret. Meanwhile, Sanders keeps finding his life threatened as he gets closer to the truth about the sunken diamonds, and where and what they really are.
