Synopsis from Goodreads:
It’s all fun and games until…

What could possibly go wrong?
Mia’s sorry she ever asked when solving the murder leads to another mystery she can’t ignore.
Now she can’t help but think she’s set sail for troubled waters and that nothing will ever be the same again…
Shove off on a funny, fast-paced adventure with amateur sleuth Mia Watson as she navigates dangerous waters and deadly mysteries aboard the SS Bella Blanca.
A clean cozy mystery series.
My Review
Mia Watson and her husband are celebrating their anniversary with a murder mystery cruise. Mia is over-the-top excited, while her husband not so much. She meets new people and gets totally absorbed into solving the murder. Meanwhile, her husband doesn’t seem to want anything to do with it.
Although the murder mystery is staged for the cruise ship, it’s still fun trying to figure things out with Mia and her new friends. There are a couple of real-life mysteries going on, although no dead bodies are involved.
This is a short mystery that had me from the start. I’m really enjoying cruise ship mysteries these days and this is the first in a series. The characters are well-written and the plot moves along at a fast pace. There were a few surprises thrown into the mix as well. It made for a great afternoon escape.
I’ll be checking out the other books in the near future.
This one is from my own e-book collection. All opinions expressed are my own.
That looks good.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure a murder mystery cruise would be my speed, but reading about one might be fun.
