When Marianne is jilted by Seth the very morning their Caribbean cruise sets sail, she boards the magnificent MS Minerva as a reluctant solo traveler, never imagining the imbroglio that awaits her on what was meant to be a romantic getaway. Upon meeting her assigned table mates, Marianne decides they could have been plucked from the cast of Gilligan's Island, that old TV sitcom about castaways. When Marianne pinch-hits for a mysteriously missing staff musician, she is suddenly caught up in a mystery of her own, narrowly escaping one calamity after another. Bungling at every turn, her well-intentioned companions from "Gilligan's Table" become unwitting accomplices in the plot aimed against her. Plucky, fearless and chronically unlucky, Marianne rallies in the nick of time to identify her nemesis; the most unassuming suspect.
