The Deadly Cruise

On a summer night, the son of a powerful politician took the wheel of the family's speedboat - an ex-lover and old friends on board. Hours later, one was dead, one in a coma, and the son is facing a murder charge. Was it an act of jealous rage? Or is there far more to this tragedy than meets the eye?
