a Keller Novel
The man playing Mr. December to her Miss May? Except that sweet young thing’s barely made it into April. Is statutory rape legal in international waters? === The contrast between the two of them, dramatic enough in the dining room, was far greater beneath the sun. Earlier he’d looked old enough to be her father, or perhaps her father’s older brother; now you’d be more apt to cast him as her dead grandfather. === “Hell, who needs a motive? I’d kill him myself if I thought it’d get me a shot at her.” “Oh, Roy,” Myrt said, and swatted him with her napkin. “Am I gonna have to keep you on a leash?” “Arf arf,” Roy said. === “She’s from the Philippines.” “I think they all are.” “Uh-huh. All the dining room and housekeeping staff, and the ones on the desk. The cruise director and his staff are American, except for the ones who aren’t. And the crew’s a mini United Nations, with a lot of Eastern Europeans. The chef is Swiss. Pilar doesn’t like the Ukrainians.”
