#1 Best Seller in Travel Humor
Amazon.com #1 in Cozy Mystery, Mystery Anthologies, and Amateur Sleuths ‘A complete cozy mystery series with an ending that left me on a high for days!’ ***Series complete in one boxed set***

When Patricia Fisher boards the world’s finest cruise ship for a three-month tour of the world, she expects a great many things …

… finding herself embroiled in a priceless jewel theft isn’t one of them.

Less than twenty-four hours after setting sail, she’s accused of murder and confined to her cabin. Thankfully, she is staying in the royal suite and that means she has a butler to help. When he recruits his gym instructor BFF, Barbie, the trio turn detective to find the real killer.

But someone on board doesn’t want them to succeed and when the next body is found in her kitchen, the team realise it’s more than just her freedom at stake.

They’d better solve this fast or all three of them might be next.

Read this fast-paced adventure and nine more full-length stories as a middle-aged housewife throws off the shackles of her old life and becomes the woman she was always meant to be.

This boxed set of books contains the following titles:
The Missing Sapphire of Zangrabar
The Kidnapped Bride
The Director's Cut
The Couple in Cabin 2124
Dr Death
Murder on the Dancefloor
Mission for the Maharaja
A Sleuth and her Dachshund in Athens
The Maltese Parrot
No Place Like Home

When Steve Higgs writes, he hits it out of the park. I find myself laughing loud and often!

Praise for Patricia Fisher:
Patricia and her friends are so well-rounded and believable.
The series gets better with every book – I love Patricia Fisher I read this whole series in 3 days.
Each story got more and more exciting.
I hated it to end. I highly recommend, this series.
Good clean reading and delightful mysteries!

When Steve Higgs wrote his debut novel, Paranormal Nonsense, he was a captain in the British Army. He would like to pretend that he had one of those careers that must be blacked out and generally denied by the government, and that he has to change his name and move constantly because he is still on the watch list in several countries. In truth, though, he started out as a mechanic - not like Jason Statham in the film by that name, sneaking around as a hitman, but more like one of those sleazy guys who charges a fortune and keeps your car for a week even though the only thing you went in for was a squeaky door hinge.

At school, he was largely disinterested in all subjects except creative writing, for which he won his first prize at the age of ten. However, calling it the first prize he won suggests that there were other prizes, which is not the case. Awards may yet come, but in the meantime, he enjoys writing mystery and thriller novels and claims to have more than a hundred books forming a restless queue in his mind because they are desperate to be written.

Now retired from the military, he lives in southeast England with a duo of lazy sausage dogs. Surrounded by rolling hills, brooding castles, and vineyards, he doubts he'll ever leave, the beer is just too good.

    The stories are well written and the author has a marvelous imagination. The mentions of Anna the dachshund are so typical that I think the author has one. I, too, had a dachshund for 15 years. I enjoy the stories on land and think there is more flexibility than on the ship. I particularly enjoy Jermaine. If he drops out of the stories, so will I, so please keep him in.

    This is an excellent series of well written, accurately described and enthralling stories, with well rounded, highly relatable characters, set against well described and accurate backgrounds, which because of my own knowledge of the specific area of Kent described in the final book made me feel I could trust that the details in the previous books were equally accurately described.

    Another great series by Steve Higgs. Started reading Higgs with the Blue Moon Investigation series (21 books) and was introduced to a new author that can tell a great yarn that got me hooked on the story and excited about the next book and it’s wonderful characters. Humor, great stories and wonderful characters that keep you wanting more. Thank you Mr Higgs for sharing your gift of spinning a great yarn.

    I love the characters, escapades & hilarious scenes created by this writer. It's funny that whenever Patricia speaks I see this English actress taking on the role. It seems to make each story funnier as I see her in action. Enjoyed the series very much. Thank you Mr Higgs.
