Publisher's Summary

Discover a new series of whodunits by million-selling author Faith Martin. These charming mysteries will have you scratching your head to work out who the murderer is.

Meet Jenny Starling: travelling cook and reluctant amateur detective.

Please note this book was first published as Dying for a Cruise under Faith Martin’s pen name, Joyce Cato.

Jenny Starling has a job on a luxury paddle steamer working for a wealthy businessman. All she has to do is cook for his small number of guests. But things quickly turn sour.

Then she discovers the body of one of the passengers in the store cupboard. Who wanted him dead and why? Jenny will have to ignore many red herrings and follow the clues to get to the bottom of a complex and intriguing murder mystery.

This is the third of a series of enjoyable murder mysteries with a great cast of characters and baffling crimes which will keep you in suspense to the final second.

Perfect for fans of classic whodunits by authors like Agatha Christie, LJ Ross, TE Kinsey, and J.R. Ellis.

All-could-have-Who-dunnit solved by amiable cook.

Couldn't stop listening as chef noted details & solved mystery. Narrator personified each character well.

best one yet

all the characters were very well fleshed out and real, great mix of humour and sadness. I didn't figure this one out at all which made it that much more enjoyable.

An entertaining Listen

This was enjoyable enough. The story follows asking the lines of others in the series, but at least the killer's identity wasn't obvious.
