Embark on a gripping voyage of intrigue and danger in this fast-paced murder mystery.
Six friends agree to go on the cruise of a lifetime and leave their complicated past behind them. On night one of the cruise someone is murdered, and everyone is a suspect. As the calm facade unravels, deep secrets and complicated histories are exposed and one thing is for certain, not everyone is getting off the ship alive.

My thoughts: Another book set on a cruise, reminding me to stay on dry land. They never end well, and this one certainly has a body count.
A group of old friends, none of whom seem to like each other anymore, or who are particularly happy, go on a cruise towards Norway. They don’t quite make the fjords after someone goes overboard, and it only gets worse from there. All sorts of old entities, grudges and schemes emerge, pitting the friends against each other and forcing them into secret pacts of equal jeopardy.
By the time they make it back to Southampton’s docks, things will never be the same for any of them again.
So that’s one – stay away from old “frenemies” and two – no cruises. Got that.
None of the characters are particularly likeable, even the ultimately innocent ones, and one character turns out to be a truly awful person, but not the one you might suspect. There can’t be many worse places than trapped at sea with people you don’t actually like anymore. Twisted and shocking, this is a clever and enjoyable read.
