In this cozy mystery by the author of Killer Reunion, a plus-sized PI's latest job on an Alaskan cruise ends when her boss's death rocks the boat.

When famed mystery writer Natasha Van Cleef invites the Moonlight Magnolia Detective Agency on an Alaskan cruise in exchange for some personal protection, Savannah is instantly onboard with the idea. The voyage goes smoothly—until Natasha and her husband flee the ship and get killed in a suspiciously explosive crash . . .

Awash in regret, Savannah and the MM crew won't return home to San Carmelita until they expose whoever caused the fatal "accident." But Savannah and her team discover that Natasha's life was far more dramatic than any of her bestsellers. Not only was her marriage and literary career splattered with bad blood, but a crazed fan was tracking her every move. With suspects and clues flooding in by the boatful, it's all hands on deck as Savannah rushes to seize the murderer before she lands herself in hot water next . . .

      Humor and romance leaven McKevett’s 22nd whodunit featuring Savannah Reid of the Moonlight Magnolia Detective Agency in San Carmelita, Calif. (after 2016’s Killer Reunion). After receiving a terrifying death threat, renowned mystery writer Natasha Van Cleef hires Savannah and her whole detective agency crew, plus Savannah’s husband, Det. Sgt. Dirk Coulter, to provide protection on an Alaskan cruise aboard the Arctic Queen. One morning during the voyage, Natasha and her philandering spouse, Colin, slip off the ship to an isolated village without telling anyone. The couple later perish in a fiery car crash near a glacier. This tragedy and related problems with the less-than-cooperative head of the Arctic Queen’s security result in Savannah’s team and other passengers being booted off the ship. Stuck in the remote little burg, the detectives must determine whether the crash was an accident—or murder. This lighthearted cozy builds to a double surprise ending. Agent: Richard Curtis, Richard Curtis Associates.

      A private eye's plum job turns sour when her client cuts her loose.Getting hired by Natasha Van Cleef is the second-biggest thing ever to happen to Savannah Reid (Killer Reunion, 2016, etc.), ranking just a notch below getting married to her longtime best friend, DS Dirk Coulter. Not only does the mystery writer want Savannah as her bodyguard during a fabulous Alaskan cruise, but she's happy to host Savannah's husband, brother, brother's fiancee, mother- and father-in-law, grandma, and two gay friends aboard the Arctic Queen for an all-expenses-paid wilderness adventure. It seems that Natasha's been getting some threatening letters, and she wants Savannah to make sure all goes smoothly while Natasha plays writer-in-residence aboard ship. But her relationship with her client begins to fray after Savannah's first visit to Natasha's luxury suite, where she witnesses the author's husband firsthand as he tries it on with his wife's bosomy assistant, Olive Kelly. Natasha bridles at the suggestion that her Colin has anything to do with the hate mail. By the time the ship docks at Saaxwoo, the Van Cleefs have ditched their security detail. As they round up a battered Bronco to drive out to the glacier after their clients, Savannah and Dirk are already alarmed. And when they smell smoke ahead of them, they're beginning to think that what started as an adventure is about to end as a disaster. Savannah and Dirk's spousal sparring would pack more of a punch if they weren't squashed in by the whole mishpocha. Here's hoping their next outing will give them more room to romp.
