Review: LAST VOYAGE by Robin Pond

A marvelously constructed cruise ship mystery, in the vein of the late great Agatha Christie, LAST VOYAGE introduces the concept of poetic justice in a unique fashion. From the beginning, we meet a character who is so cunning, so charming, so seemingly cultured, but who underneath the surface is a cold-hearted, greedy sociopath for whom humans are only tools. As the cruise approaches the Baltic Sea, we learn that a particular collection of guests are former financial victims of this con artist, brought to the cruise in unexpected, beneficial ways and put together with him. The consequences are perhaps not unexpected, but definitely mysterious, and the strong female lead investigator deepens interest in the plot.
