Synopses & Reviews
Phillipa has always loved Agatha Christie mysteries, but its not until the new captains son and some interesting guests come aboard the cruise ship where she lives (and her parents work), that she finally gets a chance to do some sleuthing of her own.
Review
"When two veterans such as Levy and Gerstein join forces, its clear the result is going to be good, and with its intriguing high-seas locale, this new mystery series doesnt disappoint. A smart heroine, a cute boy, and a mystery that can be pretty easily solved make this right on target for a middle-grade audience. And with Caldecott Medalist Gerstein behind the expressive double-page illustrations, you can be sure the artwork is of a higher caliber than is found in most series fiction. Anchors away!" —Booklist
"Philippa's narration keeps readers guessing..." —Publishers Weekly
Synopsis
