The Tahitian Gold Cup Treasure Hunt
(2024)(Book 20 in the Cozy Cruise Mysteries series)
A novel by Lizzie Josephson
This year, The Fifth Annual Gold Cup Cruise Competition hosted by The French Polynesia Tourism Board featured a Treasure Hunt.
A golden object was secreted on five Islands and at least two hundred passengers on each ship had to find it, photograph all five and submit the snapshots to the Board for their ship to win.
The prize those passengers received certainly made it worth their while, as long as at least two hundred participated, that is.
Every passenger successfully completing the Treasure Hunt would receive a five day stay at a top resort somewhere in French Polynesia.
The ship submitting the most correct answers would win a fourteen day vacation for those passengers.
No duplication was allowed and to prevent unscrupulous copying of photos, the passengers were warned their cameras and telephones would be checked to make sure they had taken the pictures themselves.
Naturally, the desire to win was strong, and nobody wanted to win more than the four ladies from the Pine View Seniors Complex in Vancouver, Canada. They loved sailing on Cosmos Cruise Line ships, and they knew they would love staying in a five star hotel in French Polynesia almost as much.
Well, that wasn’t quite true.
Somebody wanted to win even more than Holly, Jill, Julie, and Vicki.
The owner of one ship was determined to win the top prize, and they would stop at nothing to make sure he did, by fair means or foul.
Could anybody stop the cheating?
