Cheri Wiley: Light reading, great first book of a new series for me. I always enjoy Blythe Baker's books and I am looking forward to the next book in the series.

Lexa L.: Quite short - a novella rather than a book. The main characters are twins - and I found Isabella a bit of a pain. She is very headstrong and doesn’t do a lot of listening to her more sensible brother. This involves a murder on board the cruise ship they have been sent to England on, after Isabella was jilted. Isabella solves it, although not before she is nearly murdered twice. The twist at the end redeemed the book for me - I hope she behaves a bit more sensibly in the next!

Read by Dennis: I am trying to warm up to the twin duo here. They really love each other but they come across as two spoiled brats. Anyway it was a fun mystery and did Keep Me guessing till the end. Going to continue onto book 2 and see if I warm up to them more.

Kindle Customer: Twins Lillian and Felix Crawford have not conformed to their wealthy New York parent's expectations, so they are being sent to their English Uncle's home to do penance. Their father booked them on a luxurious cruise ship, so exile didn't seem too hard to bear, but when Lillian sees the shadow of what turns out to be murder, they decided to solve the case themselves. Lillian is a rich, spoiled brat, who doesn't understand hunting for a murderer can be dangerous, but Felix has a much better grasp on human nature. The twists and turns of the plot are interesting. I found Lillian to be thoroughly obnoxious in the beginning of the book, but her personality improved after several close calls with death. The book was interesting enough that I got the next in the series, hoping that Lillian will improve.

Christine Costello: Loved this first installment of Lillian and Felix on their way from New York to Southampton. The murder had intrigue and a good plot.

It’s always a joy when a new book comes out. The author never disappoints.

Ann Scherick: This book was not as great as the previous books by Ms Baker. Lillian is far too dramatic and almost arrogant for my tastes. I struggled to read the whole book. I will continue to read Ms Baker’s books, just not this series.
