Agnes Andersson needs a husband in her life and the cruise she’s taking is her lifeline to accomplishing that.

Self-described as overweight and jowly, she knows she is not desirable to everyone. Still, she is determined to find a tall, handsome husband.

She spots Einar immediately, and is thrilled that he is assigned to her dinner table. But things are not going well. Over the days he spends most of his time with Pamela who is supposed to be Agnes’s ‘cruise best friend.’

A bit of cat and mouse takes place as Agnes takes some matters into her own hands when things mount against her. And then… an unfathomable opportunity.
