The Widow on the Honeymoon Cruise: The Murder Mystery Book Club 5

by C. A. Larmer

Overview

Four couples set sail on a luxury honeymoon cruise. Only two will survive. Luckily, one of the newlyweds happens to be a member of a very nosey book club…

It’s supposed to be Claire Hargreaves’ idyllic honeymoon, exploring the remote Great Barrier Reef with three other couples and six crew, cocooned on a superyacht owned by her new husband Simon. But then a passenger is found floating lifeless above the coral and suddenly romance plays second fiddle to murder.

The killer has to be one of the group, and Claire couldn’t be more exhilarated (just don’t tell Simon!). He's so worried he quickly winches in Detective Liam Jackson to investigate, followed soon after by the book club, masquerading as newlyweds.

In this gripping, closed-circle thriller, the MURDER MYSTERY BOOK CLUB are back on the high seas, but this time there's ten secretive suspects to choose from, a stalled engine that may or may not have been sabotaged, and nothing but their sleuthing skills, and some rather delicious cocktails, to see them through.

Drawing inspiration from a modern murder mystery this time, the gang must unmask a murderer while salvaging Claire’s new marriage which is dropping faster than bodies on the boat.

If you’re a fan of locked-room mysteries, dark humour, shocking twists and a cracking pace, the fifth MURDER MYSTERY BOOK CLUB is the ideal holiday read for you. Bon voyage and don't forget your scuba gear—you're in for one hell of a dive!

NB: This book follows British English spelling and usage, and contains some Australian slang. Clean read: no graphic violence, sex, or strong language. Genre: humorous, cozy mystery series, amateur sleuths, international mystery, police procedural.

About the Author

Christina (C.A.) Larmer tried writing a romance at the age of 13 but pretty soon she'd slaughtered the hero and planted it on the heroine. It was the beginning of a beautiful love affair that has now resulted in four crime series, including the Murder Mystery Book Club, the Sleuths of Last Resort, the Ghostwriter mysteries, the Posthumous Mystery series, a domestic suspense novel, and a stand-alone mystery masquerading as a family saga (she's fooling nobody).

Born and bred in Papua New Guinea, Christina has lived and worked around the world from New York and Los Angeles to London and Sydney. A journalist, editor, teacher and mentor, she now runs an indie publishing business from the east coast of Australia, where she lives with her musician husband, two sons, a devilish 'Bluey' and countless koalas and snakes, none of which come close to the villains in her books. Well, maybe just the Bluey...
