Cruel Christmas Cruise

Description

It’s Christmas aboard the Emerald Queen of the Seas. Trixie and the gang are cruising the British Isles—and so is a killer. Cosmopolitan Magazine calls Addison's books, "...easy, frothy fun!" A laugh out loud Cozy Mystery by New York Times, USA TODAY, & Wall Street Journal bestseller Addison Moore. A cruise ship cozy mystery! Includes RECIPE! When a notorious author and gossip columnist turns up dead at the welcome ball, I find myself with two ghosts from Christmas past, three secretive suspects, and one husband who’d prefer I stay out of trouble. If I thought the first half of my life was a bumpy ride, I’d better buckle up because I’m about to go over the hill and off the rails. My name is Trixie Troublefield Baxter, and I live on a cruise ship. My days are filled with exciting shore excursions, nonstop buffets, and ceaseless games of bingo—can life get any better than this? But then there’s that body. I’m finally getting some quality time with my shiny new husband this Christmas on a festive cruise through the British Isles. But when Captain Wes Crawford’s high school reunion turns deadly at the welcome ball, my holiday plans capsize faster than an overcrowded dinghy. The victim? A notorious gossip columnist and secret-spiller extraordinaire. The suspects? A shipload of former classmates, each with skeletons they’d prefer stay firmly in the closet. As if untangling this yuletide murder wasn’t complicated enough, I’m being haunted by a couple of ghosts from Christmas past. From exploring Edinburgh Castle to hunting Nessie at Loch Ness, I’m juggling Christmas festivities, family drama, and a killer who’s still on board. If I don’t catch them soon, someone else might find themselves on the wrong end of a silent night. Midlife on the high seas is proving to be murder.
