Meg wants to see the world before she hits 30. What better way than to be a “Guest Shopper” on a world cruise. But there is a catch, she has to serve as the guinea pig for some extraordinary excursions. You know, to make sure they would be good enough for Grand Voyager passengers. Suddenly there is a murder onboard and Meg is not letting this go unsolved, especially since it is someone she has gotten to know on the cruise. The main suspect has now gone overboard and Meg knows it wasn’t an accident. Not to mention some mysterious person has been trying to harm Meg since the beginning of her cruise. Meg finds herself sleuthing around the ship in a not so secretive manner. Will she find out who is behind the mischief onboard?
This is book 3 in the series but can easily be read as a stand alone, with a minimum loose ends.
I received an advanced copy of this book and have read it just before I leave for a cruise. Yup, I am on the look out not only for this hidden ducks but now I feel ready to sleuth around, lol. I can’t wait to read book #4 and continue sharing my honest opinions about the book. Leena Clover, you hit another one out of the park.

Very Good!!
I am enjoying this series. This book picks up where the last one left off. Meg is on a world tour cruise. She should be relaxing but as usual finds herself in the middle of a big mess. The story is original & well written. The characters are relatable. I look forward to reading the next book.
