It's trouble at sea when eighty-year old Flossie and Sterling Silver, former Vaudeville magicians, are invited on a relaxing cruise. Goldie's husband, Captain Red Pepper, has arranged for her mother and uncle to sail on his ship, the Aurora Borealis, and mingle with magicians during the Magic on the High Seas cruise. Goldie thinks it's a great idea and her twin sister, Godiva, sees it as a chance to keep the old folks out of trouble while she spends time with her new boyfriend, Dexter Diamond. Magic turns to mayhem when one of the star magicians is murdered on board and Uncle Sterling becomes a suspect. The FBI gets involved and soon the whole Silver family is caught up in the search for an international jewel thief. How will the feisty octogenarians get out of hot water this time? When can Goldie Silver return to her quiet antique shop in Juneau? Will advice columnist, Godiva Olivia DuBois, find true love this time around?… (más)

This book falls into the category of Cozy Mystery, which both my partner and I really enjoy reading.

I received an eBook version of this book in return for a review.

I won't go into the details of the plot - the amazon.com description below does this admirably - but I would like to say that I enjoyed it a lot. This is the second Silver Sisters Mystery I have read and the quality is excellent.

The characters are all well-defined and, in this case, even the villains are likeable enough with enough good points that you find yourself thinking "they'd be interesting at a dinner party".

It is though, the Silver Sisters and their extended family that you read these books for, as the mystery comes second. When their mother Flossie and their uncle Sterling - both ex-magicians - are invited on a sea cruise for magicians you know they are going to be right in the thick of it, and they are.

My one complaint is that I would probably have enjoyed a slightly more definitive denouement. ( )
