Murder in the Hidden Cargo Hold: Olivia Ocean Cruise Ship Mysteries

🚢 Murder, Mystery, and Mischief at Sea! 🐾

Cruise ship photographer Olivia Ocean thought her new job aboard the luxurious Moonlit Majesty would be smooth sailing—until she catches someone trying to toss a tiny kitten overboard. Her daring rescue of the furball (soon christened Pickle) doesn’t just save whiskers—it lands her smack in the middle of a deadly crime scene in the ship’s hidden cargo hold.

Now, armed with her camera, a clue-sniffing cat, and an inconvenient knack for stumbling into trouble, Olivia must navigate glittering ballrooms, secret crew-only passages, and buffets with suspiciously good cheesecake. Teaming up with the ship’s mysteriously handsome security officer, she’s determined to catch a killer before the next port of call—or at least before Pickle chews through another camera strap.

✨ If you enjoy these tropes, this cozy mystery is for you:

• 🐱 Adorable animal sidekick (Pickle the kitten steals every scene)

• 📸 Quirky amateur sleuth with a camera instead of a magnifying glass

• ❤️ Slow-burn sparks with a swoon-worthy security officer

• 🚢 A glamorous cruise ship = the perfect “locked-room at sea” setting

• 🍰 Humor, hijinks, and a buffet full of red herrings (and cheesecake)

• 🕵️ Whodunit fun with no gore, bad language, or graphic violence

If you love cozy mysteries with witty heroines, quirky sidekicks, laugh-out-loud banter, and tropical cruise ship vibes, you’ll be hooked by Murder in the Hidden Cargo Hold—the first delightful whodunit in the Olivia Ocean Cruise Ship Mysteries.
