About this ebook

The #1 New York Times bestselling series that started with Stalking Jack the Ripper continues its streak in this third bloody installment set aboard a ship harboring fatal secrets . . .

Audrey Rose Wadsworth and her partner-in-crime-investigation, Thomas Cresswell, are en route to New York to help solve another blood-soaked mystery. Embarking on a week-long voyage across the Atlantic on the opulent RMS Etruria, they're delighted to discover a traveling troupe of circus performers, fortune tellers, and a certain charismatic young escape artist entertaining the first-class passengers nightly.

But then, privileged young women begin to go missing without explanation, and a series of brutal slayings shocks the entire ship. The disturbing influence of the Moonlight Carnival pervades the decks as the murders grow ever more freakish, with nowhere to escape except the unforgiving sea.

It's up to Audrey Rose and Thomas to piece together the gruesome investigation as even more passengers die before reaching their destination. But with clues to the next victim pointing to someone she loves, can Audrey Rose unravel the mystery before the killer's horrifying finale?

I literally can't stop reading. Her attention to detail has me spinning! The visionary story plays out in my mind just as a movie does on the big screen (but obviously way better because it's the book!) I typically guess correct for most murder mystery stories, but this had me flailing up until the very end. Wonderful! I will probably buy 3 more books just to continue to support this amazing and talented series! Thank you!

I loved this last book. My favorite character was the tension and attraction between Audrey Rose and Mephistopheles. I really hope this isn't the last of the series. This book series(along with other forensic science books but mainly this one series) has made me want to start a career in forensic science. I really hope you're not finished with this series. I love each and every book and the characters, both old and new in the books.

I loved this one just as much as the first two. It kept me guessing the entire time, as always. I can't wait for the next book in the Cressworth adventures!
