TITLE WAVE by Lorna Barrett is a delightful cozy mystery and the first in the BookTown mystery series that I have read. I enjoyed the pace and the storyline sounds like a cruise I would love to go on myself, one filled with lots of mystery authors, so you know something big will happen, and it will not disappoint. The characters are well developed and even the topics touched on that I haven't seen in a cozy mystery before. Example is how everyone knows one of the main characters, Tricia Miles, has a peculiar appetite and in this story her sister helps her to get to the root of it. However, the subject is not too serious so it takes away from the fun of a cozy mystery.

Tricia and Angelica Miles go on a cruise with other friends from Stoneham Chamber of Commerce for a vacation. This is not just any cruise but one filled with mystery authors from all over. Most of them liked, and maybe one who is not. It is not long before there is a murder on the Celtic Lady Cruise Liner. Now Tricia, who is known as a jinx because people are always dying around her, tries to find out who did it before they arrive at their port at the end of the week. Has she gotten herself in deep waters?

I recommend TITLE WAVE by Lorna Barrett to take for a vacation read or a just anytime-read. You will find yourself spending their whole cruise trying to figure out who is the guilty party with a surprise ending! There are many possibilities that make this a great read if you love trying to figure out who did it.
