The Merry Widow Murders

(2023)
A novel by

 
 
Lucy Revelstoke, unconventional widow of a young British lord and daughter of a Canadian mobster twice removed, is crossing the Atlantic on a state-of-the-art ocean liner in 1928. Rubbing elbows with the era’s elite and reconnecting with her husband’s aristocratic friend Tony should make for a swell trip. But a dead body
dumped in Lucy’s stateroom the first night of the voyage threatens to capsize the new life she’s built for herself.

Who is this dead man? And how did he get into her room?

Together with her pickpocket-turned maid and Tony, Lucy rushes to investigate, just steps ahead of the authorities who will certainly dig too deeply into her dodgy Canadian past.



Genre: Cozy Mystery

Praise for this book

"'Delightful' is one of the first words that come to mind. The 1920s shipboard setting is beautifully observed; the plot will keep you guessing and the heroine, is - well - delightful. Not to be missed." - Maureen Jennings
