Since catering themed events is a good way to make extra cash, Val agrees to board the Titanic—or at least cater a re-creation of the doomed journey on a yacht. The owner of the yacht, who collects memorabilia related to the disaster, wants Val to serve the last meal the Titanic passengers ate . . . while his guests play a murder-mystery game. But it is the final feast for one passenger who disappears from the ship. And that’s only the tip of the iceberg.
Now Val has to reel in a killer before s’more murders go down . . .
Maya Corrigan has done it again! These books and the characters get better each time.
Val has a meeting with a yacht owner and collector of Titanic memorabilia, he would like Val to do a re-creation of the final dinner served to the first class passengers, which is a little above Val's usual offerings! Otto Warbeck is a man who gets what he wants though and whilst Val manages to talk him down from the full menu she still is going to cater 10 courses ... on the yacht! (luckily a lot can be pre-made and just re-heated or even served cold), her Grandfather is acting as sous chef and waiter and Bethany is going to be serving savoury s'mores as an icebreaker.
One of the guests hasn't managed to make it and as the evening also consists of a Murder Mystery game, based on the Titanic, Bethany is asked to make up the number and play the part (which Val understands but has left her and her Grandfather doing even more work!), everything is smooth sailing until they run into a squall, the person steering the ship has been drugged and Otto has disappeared!
Now Val, her Grandfather and Bethany end up looking into what happened and why, hopefully before anyone else goes under.
