A murdered chef on a cruise. A terrible bug spreading among passengers on the ship. A new bride whose dream honeymoon is turning into a nightmare.

Meghan can’t get over the fact that she’s now married and stares endlessly at her ring finger to confirm that she’s now Mrs. Irvin. She’s pleasantly surprised to discover that her honeymoon will be on a cruise ship as she’s never been on one before.

The cruise is all she expected and much more. With an endless variety of cuisine from all over the world and numerous fun activities to keep her occupied for a lifetime plus the love of her life by her side, Meghan doesn’t want the trip to end.

The honeymoon from paradise suddenly takes a nasty turn when an obnoxious chef is found dead at a cooking event.

Things take a turn for the worse when several passengers become violently ill and some of the ship’s crew are confirmed deceased.

Meghan’s heart aches for the sick and departed on the ship. Her anxiety levels go through the roof when her husband is identified and arrested as a prime suspect.

This isn’t what she bargained for when she began her honeymoon cruise. Her amateur sleuthing reveals that the murdered chef had a lot of enemies on the ship but who would’ve despised him so much to kill him? And is his murder linked to the bug that’s causing mayhem on the ship?

Meghan can’t afford to wallow in self-pity while every semblance of normalcy crumbles around her. Will she piece the clues that will point to the killer and reveal what’s causing terror on the cruise?
