Jude McCoy has been assigned a new partner, Jackson Crow,
who just happens to be the head of the F.B.I.'s Krewe of
Hunters, a special unit of paranormal agents. Jude is
unsure
what it means with the case they have but he is glad to
have someone so experienced, because this one just got
really strange. It is during the search for a serial
killer
known as the Archangel they find themselves on board a
historic cruise ship and about to face his own HAUNTED
DESTINY.
Alexi Cromwell, a pianist at the Destiny's piano bar,
becomes involved in the investigation through the simple
fact that she sees ghosts and the Destiny is full of them.
The long historic life of the ship has lent itself to a
number of tragedies including its time as a hospital ship
and the murder of a Broadway star and her husband who
join
Alexi often at her piano.
The last thing she wants is to feel an attraction for the
skeptical Jude who doesn't believe she sees ghosts but the
truth is so does he. Both have past tragedies and aren't
looking for love but sometimes what you least expect you
find.
HAUNTED DESTINY is another fantastic offering of author
Heather Grahams "Krewe of Hunter" series. I'm not sure if
I
should call a mystery involving a serial killer fun but to
me this book was just that. The variety of ghostly
personalities was amazing as this writer knows how to make
everything come alive (pardon the pun). There was also a
very lovely romance between Alexi and Jude, and
considering
how rocky they started out with the missed and mixed
signals was very nicely handled. I really loved the ending
but I can't tell you what it was as I felt it was a very
important part of both Alexi and Jude's personalities. I
am
also going to pat myself on the back because for the first
time in reading Ms. Grahams "Krewe" books I was able to
pick out the killer. Okay, so they narrowed it down in the
process of Jackson's wife, Angela via the computer,
eliminating most of the crew and passengers, but I did
guess right. If you are looking for a good mystery, a
sweet
romance with just the right amount of steam to have you
fanning yourself, ghosts of all shapes and sizes and a
very
fun look at a cruise ship then HAUNTED DESTINY is a book
you will want to pick up and devour.
A historic cruise ship, a haunted ship, the Celtic American
Line's Destiny, sets sail from the Port of New Orleans—with
a killer on board. He's known as the Archangel Killer
because of the way he displays his victims in churches. And
how he places a different saint's medallion on each body. No
one knows exactly who he is or why he's doing this.
Jackson Crow—head of the FBI's Krewe of Hunters, a special
unit of paranormal investigators—is assigned to the case,
along with local agent Jude McCoy. Then Alexi Cromwell, who
works in the ship's piano bar, is drawn into the situation
when a victim's ghost appears to her—and to Jude. She and
Jude share an attraction, and not just because of their
mutual talent.
There are many suspects, but one by one they're ruled out…
Or are they? In the end, Jude and Alexi have to rely on each
other to catch the killer and escape his evil plans for Alexi.
