For this week's Can't Wait Wednesday hosted by Tressa at the book blog, Wishful Endings, I'm featuring, Murder At Sea, by Helena Dixon. This series is on my list of wanting to continue even though I haven't gotten far with it. Gorgeous covers, cute characters, and cozy plots.
In this story, Kitty Underhay goes on an ocean cruise adventure to solve the murder of her cousin’s love interest as well as the jewelry he apparently has stolen. They must find the murderer who is on the ship before he kills again. Set in the 1930's this is a cozy series that is long running, this being book 23.

Devon, 1938. Kitty Underhay is enjoying a well-deserved rest when her very upset cousin Hattie suddenly bursts in. She sobs that the gentleman she had been seeing, Richard Westonholme, seems to have vanished, taking all of her jewelry with him. As Hattie describes Richard, he sounds eerily familiar, and Kitty and her husband Matt board a ship in hot pursuit – only to find him lying in a lifeboat… dead.
As they’ve set sail, the murderer has to be on board too, but there are suspects as far as the eye can see. Could Richard’s wife have something to do with the murder? What about the rich heiress and her guardian? And is the steward hiding something fishy?
Kitty and Matt are all too aware that the clock is ticking while the suspects are trapped with no escape. Can they net the killer before the ship docks? Or will one of them be dead in the water before they reach dry land?
