Jules Capshaw is trying to keep her cool as Torte gets set to make its transformation from quaint, local confectionary cafรฉ to royal pastry palace. Meanwhile, Julesโs estranged husband Carlos is making a desperate plea for her to come aboard his cruise ship and dazzle everyone with her signature sweets. She may be skeptical about returning to her former nautical life with Carlos but Jules canโt resist an all-expense-paid trip, either. If only she knew that a dead body would find its way onto the itinerary . .
โA warm and inviting atmosphere, friendly and likable main characters, and a nasty murder mystery to solve!โ ―Fresh Fiction
Now, instead of enjoying tropical drinks on deck between whipping up batches of sea-salted chocolates and flambรฉing fresh pineapple slices in the kitchen, Jules is plunged into dangerous waters. Her investigation leaves her with more questions than answers: Why canโt anyone on board identify the young woman? And how can she help Carlos keep passengers at ease with a killer in their midst? Jules feels like sheโs ready to jump ship. Can she solve this case without getting in too deep?
