    "A cruise through history.....with murder on board" Set in the early 1900s Brittany never expected a simple cruise to the Caribbean to turn into something impossible. One moment, she was on a modern ship the next, she found herself in another time altogether. The year? The early 1900s. Elegant women in long frocks with cinched waists glided by, their hair styled in intricate fashions she'd only seen in history books. Men in pristine suits and polished top hats filled the halls. It was a scene from the past... and she was stuck in the middle of it. But shock turned to horror when the crowd suddenly parted, revealing a body lying face down on the polished floor. A murder. Confused, trapped, and with no way to return to her own time, Brittany makes a daring choice: if she wants answers and a chance to survive she'll have to play detective. © 2025 D.James All rights reserved This story is my original work.
