Murder on the Leviathan by Boris Akunin is set in 1878 and follows Erast Fandorin as he investigates the murder of Lord Littleby, an English collector found dead with nine staff members in his Paris house. The case leads Fandorin to board the world's largest steamship, the Leviathan, where a group of first-class passengers are forced to dine together in the Windsor Suite. As more passengers are murdered and the ship heads towards Calcutta, Fandorin must use his investigative skills to uncover the truth. The French police have narrowed down the suspects to ten, but can Erast Fandorin identify the killer before they strike again? This gripping mystery requires all Fandorin's expertise to solve. With its intricate plot and historical setting, Murder on the Leviathan is a compelling read for fans of detective fiction and historical mysteries.
