01 / THE SYNOPSISWHAT HAPPENED ABOARD THE MINDY LOU?

Nineteen-year-old deckhand Ben witnesses the murder of his captain aboard the Mindy Lou. In an instant, an ordinary day at sea becomes a fight to stay alive.

Behind the attack lies a far-reaching conspiracy involving intelligence officials and operatives willing to do anything to recover a dangerous secret. Ben's unlikely ally is Daniel, an exceptionally intelligent dolphin struggling to protect his injured mate.

As a hidden piece of information becomes the focus of a ruthless pursuit, Ben and Daniel face forces with the power to reshape nations. Trust becomes a scarce resource. Survival demands courage. And the question of what justice really means grows harder to answer.

A Question of Justice blends political intrigue, military suspense and an unexpected bond between human and animal lives.
