We begin with a wide array of
characters on a luxury cruise line ship. One of the passengers was the revered
Lady Em, who was in possession of Cleopatra’s necklace.
“Whoever takes this necklace to
sea will never live to reach the shore.”
Included on the passenger list are
Willy and Alvirah Meehan, the lotter winners. Several people seemed to already
have their eye on that necklace.
The author, once again, reels you
in with these characters and the mystery. The ship was full of thieves and
liars, and some even harbored thoughts of…murder. By the third day of the
cruise, a man had gone overboard and Lady Em had been murdered. The question
was: who did it?
The hunt was on for The Man with
One Thousand Faces—thief and murderer. But who was he?
Even though this cruise was only 6
days, the reading journey was quite long, but it was surprisingly gripping. I
didn’t think I would get so into it, but I did.
A good mystery read!
