The bestselling series that started with Stalking Jack the Ripper and Hunting Prince Dracula continues in this third bloody installment. A luxurious ocean liner becomes a floating prison of madness and horror when passengers are murdered one by oneâ??with nowhere to run from the killer.

Audrey Rose Wadsworth and her partner-in-crime-investigation, Thomas Cresswell, are en route to New York to help solve another blood-soaked mystery. Embarking on a week-long voyage across the Atlantic on the opulent RMS Etruria, they're delighted to discover a traveling troupe of circus performers, fortune tellers, and a certain charismatic young escape artist entertaining the first-class passengers nightly.

But then, privileged young women begin to go missing without explanation, and a series of brutal slayings shocks the entire ship. The disturbing influence of the Moonlight Carnival pervades the decks as the murders grow ever more freakish, with nowhere to escape except the unforgiving sea. It's up to Audrey Rose and Thomas to piece together the gruesome investigation as even more passengers die before reaching their destination. But with clues to the next victim pointing to someone she loves, can Audrey Rose unravel the mystery before the killer's horrifying finale?… (mais)

Other than wanting to give Aubrey Rose a piece of my mind, this was a great read. ( )

I didn’t like this one as much as the last two. The premise was out of character and it annoyed me. I can’t wait for the next one though. ( )

Escaping from Houdini
3 Stars

Audrey Rose Wadsworth accompanies her uncle Jonathan and his young apprentice Thomas Cresswell aboard the RMS Etruria bound for New York City. Expecting to enjoy a cruise in the lap of luxury, Audrey Rose and the rest of the passengers are horrified when a young woman is stabbed during a performance of the Moonlight Carnival. Soon the bodies begin piling up and Audrey Rose has her hands full infiltrating the carnival to unmask a killer.

An intriguing mystery set against the backdrop of an ocean liner and amongst a mysteries troupe of circus performers. The inclusion of the Tarot cards in the murders is compelling and adds another layer of tension to the plot.

That said, Audrey Rose's actions in this installment are very problematic. Her interactions with the enigmatic Mephistopheles undermine the development of her romance with Thomas, and do not present her in a good light at all. Hopefully, she has learned her lesson about playing fast and loose with someone's affections.

Overall, not a bad read and Nicola Barber's narration of the audiobook is very good. ( )

Loved this book, loved Mephistopheles. I want more Mephistopheles! I know a lot of people are angry at what went down but I’m not. It wasn’t what was expected but maybe that’s what I liked about it. I don’t want this series to end. ( )
