Mary Higgins Clark

"When a glamorous cruise on a luxurious ocean liner turns deadly, all hands are on deck in the latest mystery from "Queen of Suspense" Mary Higgins Clark ... Fleeing the disastrous and humiliating arrest of her hedge fund executive husbandto-be, Celia Kilbride, a gems and jewelry expert, hopes to escape from public attention and allegations she was a co-conspirator by lecturing on a brand-new cruise ship -- the Queen Charlotte. On board she meets eighty-six-year-old Lady Emily Haywood, "Lady Em," as she's known throughout the world. Immensely wealthy, Lady Em plans to wear her priceless emerald Cleopatra necklace, which, according to legend, places a deadly curse on whoever brings it to sea. The Queen Charlotte is three days out and Lady Em is found dead -- and the necklace is missing. Is it the work of her apparently devoted assistant or her lawyerexecutor, both of whom she had invited to join her on the cruise? Is it the acclaimed Shakespearean scholar who is lecturing on board, or a guest on the ship who is planning to spread his wife's ashes at sea? Or is it the young lawyer who tries to persuade Lady Em to return the necklace to its rightful owner, Egypt? The list of suspects is large and growing. Celia does not realize that her friendship with Lady Em has not escaped the notice of the killer. With the help of her new friends Willy and Alvirah Meehan, she must avoid the mortal danger that awaits her before the ship reaches its final destination."--, Provided by publisher
