After a murder mystery train excursion turns deadly, Millie and friends sharpen their sleuthing skills in Skagway to try and solve the mystery before the cruise ends.
Cruise Director Millie Mystery Series is the new spin-off series from the wildly popular Millie’s Cruise Ship Cozy Mysteries by Author Hope Callaghan.
Recipe Included!
The Siren of the Seas’ crew is fully embracing their Alaska Adventures, exploring Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, and the glaciers as well as Whittier, the ship’s turnaround port.
While on their way to Skagway, Cat stumbles upon a contest that is right up Millie’s alley – a murder mystery train excursion. The icing on the cake is the grand prize…a shopping spree, something Cat is eager to win.
She convinces her friends to join her, believing they’re a shoo-in, especially with super-sleuth Millie on their team. What sets out to be a fun-filled adventure turns tragic when a passenger falls off the train midway down the mountain.
Despite it appearing to be a cut-and-dried accident, Millie isn’t quite so sure. After a little digging around, she’s convinced something fishy is afoot. Did the passenger tumble down the side of the mountain? Did someone push him off…or could an entirely different scenario be playing out?

I read these books strictly cause they are fun & lighthearted! Hope writes these mysteries that always end happy and I know what I’m getting when I read her books! Sometimes I prefer the predictable!
What a wonderful read this is!!! Humor, intrigue, romance...what more can you ask for? Hope Callaghan has done it again!!!!
This newest Alaskan cruise brings on board more Millie fans trying to get closer to her than before. Among them are a couple that gets Millie's attention due to their odd behavior. Although they claim to know each other casually, their body language and actions seem to say so much more. When one of the couple "accidentally" falls from a train during a cruise excursion, Millie and friends are on hand to immediately pick up clues to what may have caused the fall. The action is fast paced as only a limited number of days remain until the head back to the originating port of call!
This clean series is a wonderful adventure no matter your age and will have you turning pages faster than you thought possible!!!
As usual, another Millie episode has run its course. Or is it float its course? Book four is just as exciting as the previous books. We got to learn a little bit more about the people on the ship, and we have a new employee also. A new employee that seems to be a bull in a China cabinet. In this adventure, Millie and Company head to a local train for a mystery adventure. You have to find the clues and figure out who done it! Of course something happens! And Millie wants to find out the truth. Do you think she’ll do it? I won’t ruin the surprise for you. I cannot wait for the next one.
I really enjoy this series with its familiar characters! Add a couple of schemers to this book and you have the start to an interesting tale. Millie notices something off about the couple as soon as she meets them. They claim they are just acquaintances but seem to know each other quite a bit better than that, raising her suspicions. Then Patrick falls off the smoking platform at the back of the Skagway train and she and Annette are on the case! Great characters and a twisty plot will definitely keep your interest till the end. I received a free advance copy of this book and write this review voluntarily.
This book was action packed from start to finish. Cat has a new employee in the store, but would she be better off on a permanent break! Millie is trying to figure out how to escape her "adoring fans" and how to keep Nice out of their claws, and when she is assaulted the line was crossed! Throw in an excursion for a train ride straight up a mountain and the sides drop straight down and the ladies are all in for a murder # mystery, but had no idea they would be drawn into a real life mystery on the train involving a Siren of the Seas passenger. Once again Hope Callaghan has a hit!!!
I'm very much enjoying Millie's adventures in Alaska.
This time it's on the Skagway tourist train. Along with the investigation into the incident of a cruise passenger "falling" off the train, on a cruise designated excursion, the crew has to deal with the CEO's niece who has been transferred to their ship and is an accident waiting to happen. She's been assigned to work in the gift shop in the hope she won't put any passengers in danger.
I believe there is one more port to visit, so hopefully we'll get another story.
An exciting, intriguing Alaskan cruise with lots of port stops, seeing glaciers, a murder mystery train ride and some gems (pun intended) – a Millie fan, Fancy Jepson and Heather Geyger. This Michigander enjoyed the mention of Michigan gloomy days and reference to Elvira from Made in Savanah Mystery series. Amit’s Baked Onion Rings Recipe is included. Author Hope Callaghan crafted another page turning mystery based on her personal cruising the seas experiences.
As always, I loved this story of Millie's Adventures as a cruise director. Hope Callaghan always does a great job. Mentioning all the cruise destinations and the possible tours just took me right back to our cruise. The mystery (which I almost solved myself) was an added benefit. I have already suggested to any number of people Hope's various series, this being my absolute favorite.
Millie and the rest of the gang solve another crime, one that others don't realize is even being committed! I am sorry that she had the travel blogger stop running stuff about her. Someone cutting a chunk of her hair and selling it online was funny to me. I know it was wrong and creepy to her but a cruise director being so much of a celebrity for that to happen is funny. Another fun book about Millie and company.
Willie's cruise Ship Mysteries: Skate at Sleuths, provides exciting deceptions of beautiful Alaska and Millie at her best. The romance of Millie and her Captain continues to flame and the bond of deep friendship with girl pals grows stronger. This is a "must read" for Millie fans!
Another great book from Hope Callaghan! An Alaskan cruise takes the ship to Skagway, where Millie and her friends opt for a train excursion. During the trip a passenger falls from the train. Millie is on the case! Nicely developed characters, plenty of twists, and great writing. Highly recommended. I enjoyed this book and am looking forward to the next in the series.
Millie and her crew find the train passenger's disappearance troubling, not knowing exactly why, but a little snooping shows them their intuition was on the money. Great cozy set on a cruise ship stopped in an Alaskan port. I recommend it
Ms. Callaghan wrote an outstanding mystery. The mystery had twists, turns and a great ending. Not all mysteries need to involve a violent death. This is skillfully written in this book.
Once again Millie is off to another adventure. She has a keen sense of humor and is always getting herself into trouble of some sort. Can’t wait for her next book!
Am absolutely fabulous adventure with a mystery contest, amazing scenery, a missing passenger or two, a new accident prone crew member. All aboard the Siren of the Seas for another round of cruise sleuths.
Enjoyed the scenery descriptions and reminders of my own experience in Alaska. Interesting plot. Millie and Nic are so sweet together and getting comfortable being together in front of passengers. Interesting little “assault” situation Millie has.
As usual another wonders story filled with awesome characters. I have read the entire series and feel like I know the characters personally they are so fun to hang out with. I am already looking forward to the next book.
This book was pretty amazing!! I enjoyed it thoroughly with all the excitement Fancy caused the ships workers. Quite the fumble fingers she was. Geez. But they all rallied to help Millie. Very good read. Thanx again Hope!!
I love this series. It is always loaded with lots of shenanigans. I like that it includes Willie's faith in God. It is fun to read and has no need to use profane language. Always a plus in my book.
I loved learning about Alaska and life on a cruise ship. I never realized how a cruise ship has so many levels and the differences in accommodations. Love these stories.
How could you not instantly like the main sleuth, Millie? She partners with her friends for an adventure trying to solve a mysterious death on a train. Read along with all the clues to try and solve it yourself.
Sometimes Milli is a little to smart! She was suspicious of two people in a group , Planning a side trip. In her usual manner shE and her gang of sluthes, Were on their trail.
I love the mystery of this trip. It was like taking my Alaskan cruise again! I could picture the glacier and the streets that Milly and her friends walked on😍
Another amazing book! I am thoroughly enjoying this series. It's full of fun, suspense and the value of friendships. I can't wait to read the next in the series!
