This is another great Regan Reilly mystery from Carol Higgins Clark that takes place on a cruise ship. A good cozy mystery with suspense and intrigue.

Did I expect too much? She seems to be calling attention throughout the story on her mother's reputation. She's no Mary Higgins Clark. I doubt that I'll read more although she may improve.

    Luckily, Carol is the daughter of a famous writer or this probably never would have been published. Fortunately I have read some of her more recent works that are much better than this, her initial effort.

    This is Carol Higgins Clark's first book. A friend gave me the book and I paid too much for it. I can't say this is the worst book I have ever read, but it is close. As an author, Carol Higgins Clark has fallen far from the tree. Her mother, Mary Higgins Clark is known as the Queen of Suspense. Carol isn't the Princess nor close to being the heir apparent.
    Regan Reilly is a private detective in England for the tenth reunion of her class. The body of one of her classmates, who all thought had run away prior to graduation, is discovered near a professor's home. Regan is able to put pieces of the crime together while accompanying an elderly woman on a cruise to New York City.
    Higgins Clark relies on cliched characters and situations. Despite the vapidness of this book, I will try another of the series to see if Carol Higgins Clark's writing matures.

    And, yes, I'm still talking to the friend her gave me the book. Turns out she had very similar feelings about it.

    This was just an okay mystery, nothing particularly remarkable about it.
