Murder On Board opens your eyes to life onboard modern cruise ships

I wrote Murder On Board, a chapter a day because I wanted the reader to experience the whole sensation of cruising as much as I wanted them to understand what motivated our newly retired pensioner to murder fellow passengers and crew.

People said to me you can't write for both audiences, crime and travel simultaneously but I thought I could and you can read my efforts in Murder On Board.

  • I mean who hasn't been curious about taking a cruise to the other side of the world? 
  • I mean, aren't the seas bouncing the boat about a lot? 
  • Aren't the days at sea boring with nothing to do?
  • Isn't the food bland and just a buffet? 
  • No one dresses up for dinner anymore, do they?
  • And when you get to where you are going you're lucky if they let you go ashore?
  • And aren't the excursions extortionately expensive? 


No, no, no, no, no and yes if you take a cruise line organised excursion.

I knew nothing about cruising until 2014 when we experienced our first one and I loved it! I loved the whole experience, particularly the bit that says "the world is brought to you". Wake up today in Venice and tomorrow look out the window and its Dubrovnik outside! The next day its Porto.

I also loved the unpack once. You can holiday all around the Canary Islands or the Azores and then enjoy a few days in the Caribbean before flying home. Fourteen days of golden memories stored away to revisit, at your leisure.

So I  sat down after the most jaw-dropping fifty-day cruise that took in the Azores, the Caribbean, the USA, Mexico and the Canary Islands on the way home, and wrote for days. I hope you will give it a read. It's free currently on Kindle Unlimited and only £2.99 to buy on Amazon so dip your foot in the water and find out what happens on a cruise.
