Mayhem [and Herring] by Blake Pierce

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, 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 MAYHEM (AND HERRING), Book #6, London and her crew sail into the beautiful northern city of Oslo, admiring its gorgeous archipelago of islands, its local architecture and cuisine. It is the perfect stop—until, on a fishing outing, London reels in not the local Cod—but a dead body.

The discovery forces London, once again suspiciously in the crosshairs, to get to the bottom of a local mystery—or else risk losing her career and her future.
