“Okay. List of suspects. Who’s most likely?” Somerset was greasy with stress.
“I reviewed the passenger list. Roughly half of these people are new to this ship,” Karcsi handed the manifest to Somerset to inspect. “I’ve noted the new crew members and the deceased. Counting the bodies we found this morning, just before the passengers were restricted to their cabins, we’re up to nine dead. Additionally, Smith, who found the first body, is missing.”

The Black Fish was being tossed about violently, now completely immersed in the storm. As Somerset examined the crew manifest the two man deck guard burst into the bridge with a third man between them.
“We found him.”

did you have this previously written or are you writing as you go? it's just wonderful.
So glad that you're digging the story.
I put together a very loose outline, which really just covers the 5-6 main characters, the starting and ending point of the story, and the key moments. My goal is to take what is basically a three page outline and stretch it out into 365 installments, so I'm having to slow down the story and fill in the huge gaping holes left by my outline.
I'm a little behind, but I'm trying to write the scripts on a weekly basis. I'm trying to break the story into week-long chunks. Right now I'm a week or so behind and some of that is from rewriting little pieces here and there. I'm hoping to catch up soonish.
