A cruise ship filled with gangsters, a missing woman, and a new head of security who can't do his job. What's a middle-aged sleuth to do? Patricia just wants to spend more time in the company of Alistair Huntley, the offensively handsome captain of the Aurelia who seems only too happy to host her. But as the Aurelia sets sail from Miami, it does so with a dangerous new addition: there is a mob boss among the passengers and he's on the run - from more mobsters! Any romantic notions are soon put aside when the mobster's reluctant-looking bride-to-be goes missing and Patricia is unexpectedly volunteered to solve the mystery of her disappearance. There's a cryptic ransom note where the missing woman should be and one of her bodyguards is soon found - with a hole in his head! Regretting her decision to help out, it's not long before the opposing mobster factions take an interest in Patricia's involvement. Someone has the missing bride, everyone wants her, and they all think Patricia knows where she is. With ever-faithful butler, Jermaine, at her side and perfect blonde, Barbie, to distract the men, Patricia will still have to go all out to unravel the riddle before anyone else turns up dead. Where is the kidnapped bride?

About steve higgs
When Steve Higgs wrote his debut novel Paranormal Nonsense he was a Captain in the British Army. He would love to pretend that he had one of those careers that has to be redacted and in general denied by the government and that he has had to change his name and continually move about because he is still on the watch list in several countries. In truth though he started out as a mechanic. Not like Jason Statham sneaking about as a contract killer more like one of those greasy gits that charge you a fortune and keep your car for a week when all you went in for was a squeaky door hinge. At school he was mostly disinterested in every subject except creative writing for which at age ten he won his first award. However calling it his first award suggests that there have been more which there have not. Accolades may come but in the meantime he is having a ball writing mystery stories and crime thrillers and claims to have more than a hundred books forming an unruly queue in his head as they clamor to get out. Now retired from the military he lives in the southeast corner of England with a trio of lazy sausage dogs. Surrounded by rolling hills brooding castles and vineyards he doubts he will ever leave the beer is just too good.
