This book was…. It starts out insufferably YA and then you get to the murder and then it jumps off a cliff in the best way. And it was clever! You don’t get that enough anymore. I wanted a cruise ship murder mystery and I got such a bizarre concoction of great characters, dumb decisions, and a genuinely brilliant crime.
