Prime Shot : Patricia Fisher Ship's Detective Book 10

When someone takes a pot shot at a politician on board the Aurelia, Patricia has no sense of the mayhem heading her way.

The assassin missed their target, hitting an innocent bystander instead, but jumping into the investigation with both feet, Patricia and friends soon question if things are what they seem to be.

The politician is none other than the beleaguered Prime Minister of European state, Molovia, a man who insists the attempted assassination came at the hands of his opposition leader. It is an election year and what better way to clear the route to power than removing the person in your way?

If that is true, more attempts can be expected. Of course, a politician in danger isn’t her only concern. There are bounty hunters on board searching for a convict on the run and someone has been stealing the cleaning crews' lunches.

It all adds up to a busy time for our favourite English sleuth, but when she uncovers the lies will she be the one in the assassin’s crosshairs?
