Title: Title Wave
Author: Lorna Barrett
Series: Booktown Mystery #10
Synopsis (from bn.com): Tricia and Angelica leave Booktown behind for a pleasure cruise, but they’re going to need their life jackets because a murderer has also booked passage—in Lorna Barrett’s New York Times bestselling series.
While her bookstore, Haven’t Got a Clue, is rebuilt following a devastating fire, Tricia Miles and her sister, Angelica, decide to book a cruise for some much needed R&R. Naturally they choose a Mystery Lovers cruise, where they can ponder whodunnit in deck chairs while sipping colorful drinks and soaking up some rays.
But the fun is cut short when a fellow passenger is murdered for real. Is the killer a famous mystery author, one of his fans, or a member of the ship’s crew? As Tricia tries to find the killer before they reach port, she may be cruising for a bruising…
My thoughts: Tricia and her sister Angelica are back for the 10th installment of the fabulous Booktown Mystery series. I truly love this series – after all as a booklover who wouldn’t love an entire town full of nothing but bookshops one after another – I’m in love.
I particularly loved this book in the series as Tricia, Angelica, and her entourage take off on a cruise as Tricia’s bookstore continues to undergo the repairs after being destroyed by fire. I really love when Cozy Mystery authors take the characters out of their normal setting for one book – it is a refreshing change. I enjoyed the new setting of this book – not bad to spend an entire book on the deck of a cruise ship, eating in the great restaurants, and of course solving a murder mystery.
Now here is hoping that the next book in this series involves a grand opening of Tricia’s newly remodeled shop!!
Of course looking forward to the next book!!
A great, fun, book focused mystery series that every book lover would love!
And remember,
