When Owhiro's two finest amateur sleuths find themselves on a luxurious cruise vacation, the trip is sure to be filled with sun, fun, and murder!
What started as a relaxing getaway shifts into a shocking crime scene after a passenger on board turns up dead, leaving behind a grieving wife and daughter. Stranded in the middle of the vast sea with the investigators still miles away, Kallie and Tess take it upon themselves to unravel the baffling homicide. After all, they aren't new to solving murders.
What they don't know is that the risks are different on an isolated cruise ship, and the lurking killer isn't amused with their meddling. This dynamic duo must now tread carefully, because they are walking on thin ice!
Fun cozy mystery! I like the two best friend’s protagonists. They always have each other’s back. Great setting aboard a cruise ship. Great cozy murder!
Pina Colada Calamity is a fun cozy mystery with besties Tess Russo and Kalliope "Kallie" Brooks. They are excited to be on a 7-night cruise for 2 to the Western Caribbean that Tess won on WBUZ. Unfortunately, a murder on the ship derails their fun. As they try to have a good time onboard, they can't help using their amateur sleuthing skills to help discover who the killer is. I liked the relationship between Tess and Kallie, the cruiseship setting, and the references to all the cruiseship activities. I love going on cruises and it was easy to get "into" this story!
This is my second book by Tanya Westlake and I really like her characters. They solve murders in a variety of different situations. It’s nice to see friends work together and support each other in their lives and crime solving escapades.
Rallies and Tess can't seem to stay away from trouble. Less wins a cruise on a radio station contest, and takes Kallie as her +1. The cruise ship sets sail, and the murders begin.
Tanya Westlake is a great storyteller. Tanya knows how to develop characters and draw you into their lives. Very entertaining and rated G for the whole family. Tanya spins a wholesome clean story.
