-----------

For a thousand years, Concordia has maintained peace between its provinces. To mark this incredible feat, the Emperor’s ship embarks upon a twelve-day voyage to the sacred Goddess’s Mountain.

Aboard are the heirs of the twelve provinces of Concordia, each graced with a unique and secret magical ability known as a Blessing. Except one: Ganymedes Piscero – class clown, slacker, and all-round disappointment.

But when a beloved heir is murdered, every one of these powerful people becomes a suspect.

Now Ganymedes – alone and vulnerable without a Blessing – must become the hero he was never born to be.

With the body-count rising, can he unmask the killer before they reach the shore?

Praise for
Voyage of the Damned:

‘Agatha Christie with glitter magic." I’m totally here for it. Both funny and flirty as it deals with class, snobbery and sexuality amongst all the magic and murder. Hugely entertaining’ Herald

‘A brilliantly clever tale full of heart-warming characters, riveting twists and a gloriously conceived world’ Bea Fitzgerald, bestselling author of Girl, Goddess, Queen
