Crime (and Lager)

A European Voyage Cozy Mystery, Book 3

By: Blake Pierce

Narrated by: Sarah Kempton

Crime (and Lager) is book three in a charming new cozy mystery series by number-one best-selling author Blake Pierce, whose Once Gone has over 1,500 five-star reviews. The series begins with Murder (and Balkava), book one.

When London Rose, 33, is proposed to by her long-time boyfriend, she realizes she is facing a stable, predictable, pre-determined (and passionless) life. She freaks out and runs the other way - accepting, instead, a job across the Atlantic as a tour-guide on a high-end European cruise line that travels through a country a day. London is searching for a more romantic, unscripted, and exciting life that she feels sure exists out there somewhere.

London is elated: the European river towns are small, historic, and charming. She gets to see a new port every night and gets to sample an endless array of new cuisine and meet a stream of interesting people. It is a traveler’s dream, and it is anything but predictable.

In book three, Crime (and Lager), the cruise takes them into Germany, into its historic towns and fabled beer festivals. But when a festival goer - a loud, arrogant local - turns up dead from drinking too much beer, suspicion falls on the touring passengers. The death is quickly ruled a murder, and London realizes her future - and that of the ship - hinges on her solving the crime.

Laugh-out-loud funny, romantic, endearing, rife with new sights, culture, and food, Crime (and Lager) offers a fun and suspenseful trip through the heart of Europe, anchored in an intriguing mystery that will keep you on the edge of your seat and guessing until the very end.
