Twenty-year old luxury cruise ship waiter Li Johnson is used to the humiliation of trying to satisfy entitled rich jerk customers and a sadistic supervisor, but his problems get even bigger when he finds a passenger sunburned to death on the Sunbathing Deck. Now Li has to catch a murderer before he's framed for the crime or worse, loses his crappy job...

For twenty-year-old Li Johnson, a job as a cruise ship waiter was supposed to be a way to get over his father's death and earn enough money to go back to college. Instead, Li is struggling to maintain his sanity while coping with the demands of a sadistic maitre d' and a boatload of entitled rich jerk passengers. Li just wants to keep his head down and survive his job from hell, but when he finds a passenger sunburned to a crisp on the Sunbathing Deck, something about the scene just doesn't add up. Before he knows it, Li is on the track of a murderer and if Li doesn't find the real killer soon, he might just get framed for the crime -- or worse, lose his crappy job.
