My ReviewIt’s Mardi Gras season in New Orleans, but PI Franki Amato has too many problems to celebrate. A proven Sicilian lemon tradition hasn’t landed her a proposal, so her nonna has amped up the meddling to get her married, and pronto. Franki’s also under pressure to solve the strange murder of a family friend’s nephew, Nick Pescatore, who was found on a Mississippi River steamboat rumored to be haunted. When the sinister old boat sets sail on an overnight gambling cruise, Franki goes undercover with a motley crew, including a Mark Twainophile captain with a murderous past and a slimy galley chef with a mobster brother, not to mention an ex-stripper landlady with a newfound career as a memoir writer and all-too public speaker. Franki has to figure out what missing Civil War gold, a playing card, and a mysterious woman on roller skates have to do with Nick’s death. If she doesn’t, it’s anchors aweigh for Franki—down to Davy Jones’ locker.
I love this author, every book of hers is a pleasant discovery, a perfect mix of laughter, romance and mystery.
Franki Amato must find out what happened to the nephew of a family friend, he is mysteriously missing . To do this she must work undercover on a haunted ship. Meanwhile, she is waiting for the much-desired marriage proposal
The characters are really colorful and bizarre, adorable. Franki and her crazy Italian family are the must of fun, especially Nonna.
It is the first book in this series that I read, I had no difficulty but I am very curious to read Franki's previous adventures.
The plot is very engaging that once started it is really hard to put it down, there are many twists, lots of romance but above all lots of laughs
For those who love cozy funny mysteries it is a must read.
