Till Death Do Us Port: An O&C Mystery
The buffet is unlimited. The life expectancy is not.
Helen Cross is a retired British criminal barrister who prefers evidence to emotion. Susan Marsh is a retired paramedic who knows a suspicious death when she sees one. They were hoping for a relaxing holiday. They got a crime scene with a sea view.
When Helen agrees to join Susan on the O&C Alora for a wedding cruise to the Caribbean, she expects nothing worse than forced conga lines and mediocre cabaret.
She doesn't expect murder.
When a wedding guest is found dead at the bottom of a staircase during a storm in the Bay of Biscay, the ship's Head of Security calls it a tragic accident. Drunk passenger. Rough seas. Case closed.
Then a second guest is found dead in the spa. The ship's doctor calls it heat exhaustion. But Susan spots what the medical team missed-the evidence screams murder.
Trapped in the middle of the Atlantic with a useless security team and a killer picking off wedding guests one by one, Helen and Susan must trade the sun loungers for the interview room and use every trick in their professional arsenal to uncover the truth.
They have six days before the ship docks in Barbados and the killer vanishes forever. Unfortunately, the killer knows it too-and they've just decided that two inquisitive pensioners might be the next items to slip overboard.
Perfect for fans of Richard Osman's The Thursday Murder Club, Robert Thorogood's The Marlow Murder Club, and the sharp wit of Deanna Raybourn.
