Food writer Angie Amalfi's long-awaited vacation with her detective boyfriend Paavo Smith has all the ingredients of a romantic getaway'-a sail to Acapulco aboard a freighter, no crowds, no homicide department worries, a red bikini. It's the perfect scenario for a proposal.
But it isn't long before Angie's Love Boat fantasies are headed for stormy seas-'the cook tries to jump off the ship, Paavo is acting mighty strange, the fellow passengers are an odd lot, Angie's luggage is rifled through, and the meals are terribly unimaginative. She's willing to help out in the kitchen, but when murder is added to the menu, Angie thinks maybe the cook had the right idea.

This one wasn't my favorite, but it's still a good read.

Will definitely read others in this series.
Typical woman who doesn't know what she wants to be when she grows up, cop for a boyfriend, and murder and mayhem follow her around. Interesting story, fast read.
