In 1934, a luxury cruise becomes a fight for survival as two women’s pasts collide on a round-trip voyage from New York to Havana in New York Times bestselling author Chanel Cleeton's page-turning new novel inspired by the true story of the SS Morro Castle. New York heiress Catherine Dohan seemingly has it all. There’s only one problem. It’s a lie. As soon as the Morro Castle leaves port, Catherine’s past returns with a vengeance and threatens her life. Joining forces with a charismatic jewel thief, Catherine must discover who wants her dead—and why. Elena Palacio is a dead woman. Or so everyone thinks. After a devastating betrayal left her penniless and on the run, Elena’s journey on the Morro Castle is her last hope. Steeped in secrecy and a burning desire for revenge, her return to Havana is a chance to right the wrong that has been done to her—and her prey is on the ship. As danger swirls aboard the Morro Castle and their fates intertwine, Elena and Catherine must risk everything to see justice served once and for all.

I love the way this author tells a story. This book in the ultimate forced proximity story as they are at sea but it is not a romance.
A young heiress is supposed to marry an older, extremely rich man. However, things are not as they appear. When a man tries to kill her on the ship and then she meets a thief who keeps stealing her jewels, she must stay ahead of everyone while staying alive and executing her own plans. I had never heard of the Moro Castle disaster. I love when I learn new things in interesting books.
Dull.
Not for me.
No stars.
