The Cunning Cruise Ship Caper - Sally Carpenter - Bog

It's been years since Sandy Fairfax was a teen idol and starred in his hit '70s television series Buddy Brave, Boy Sleuth, but he still has his fans. Now it's 1993 and many of his grown-up fans see a leisurely cruise as the ideal vacation. So, when Sandy's agent finds him a pleasant gig aboard the SS Zodiac, he jumps at the chance. And, when the offer includes a spot for his musician sister, Celeste, who is blind, Sandy sees an opportunity to re-engage with his estranged sibling. However, the brother-sister duo are barely aboard the ship, when Sandy finds a singer from another shipboard show murdered in his dressing room. When the ship's security officer does little to investigate, Sandy feels obligated to jump in, even though he isn't a detective--he just used to play one on TV. Soon he's grilling potential suspects, including a burnt-out piano bar player, a Southern-fried magician, a blackmail victim, a ventriloquist with a sassy dummy and even a former flame. Will Sandy unmask the killer before the cruise ends? Will he connect with the girl of his dreams? Will he have time to enjoy the sights of Nassau? Or will he end up sleeping with the fishes in the Atlantic Ocean, another victim in this killer's CUNNING CRUISE SHIP CAPER?
