Description
Book SynopsisFifty-three-year-old Patricia Fisher is a trouble magnet like no other, a sad fact she has come to accept during her three month around the world cruise. Wherever she goes, bodies just appear, or someone gets kidnapped, or she accidentally uncovers a plot to overthrow a government. Life certainly isn’t dull for Patricia. But when she arrives home in England, she plans to start a new chapter of her life. Of course, she has a case waiting for her: the murder of her former BFF, successful business owner Maggie Jeffries. It’s not the straightforward investigation she expected though. Maggie’s office manager has vanished, anomalous sums are missing from the business accounts, and there’s a mysterious giant following her. Could her past cases be coming back to get revenge? With a potential gangland connection to the murder, cops telling her to leave the case alone, and her dog, Anna, about to give birth to royal puppies, Patricia is in for one heck of a homecoming week. Oh, and she has nowhere to live, her car is on the fritz, her soon-to-be ex-husband is lying to her, and someone definitely wants her dead. She’s going to need a lot of gin and tonic to get through this case alive. This book includes Under a Blue Moon, a free additional full-length bonus novel from the Blue Moon series.
Trade Review"An excellent follow on to Patricia's adventures aboard ship (which I enjoyed enormously). Trouble follows her whether on land or sea!"; "Steve Higgs saved the best for last. A ripping tale of the usual Patricia antics and so much more. Heart racing novel that ties in and rounds off the series beautifully. Absolutely fabulous with a touch of great crossover with the Blue Moon series. Thank you for making it a worthy ending"; "This book is the best the author, Steve Higgs, has written of the Patricia Fisher series (A Humorous Cruise Ship Cozy Mystery) which is saying something, because this series is rather good. This being book 10 in the series, you would think that the stories were becoming repetitive, but that is far from the case. The books have just been getting better and better!"
