Charlie Chan's Luxury Cruise (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798444923481)

Jason Fairfax, a very junior reporter for the Honolulu Gazette, is sent by his editor on an assignment that requires him to travel on the luxury liner, the Oahu Paradise, in the company of a disreputable detective who promises him the scoop of his reporting lifetime-maybe. While on board, he meets a cross-section of people from movie stars to ensigns, but none more intriguing than the world-famous Honolulu inspector, Charlie Chan, and his very large family, who are vacationing on board.

But all is not what it seems. Was a murder committed on board two years ago, or was it only an unfortunate accident? Is there really a smuggling ring using the luxury liner to move opium to the continental United States, or is it just a spurious rumor? Is it by simple chance that a known criminal is among the first-class passengers, or is there a more sinister reason?

Charlie Chan insists he is on vacation and uninterested in wild theories, but events conspire to make this a working vacation for the famous inspector, with Jason Fairfax involved in ways he never could have predicted when he came on board.

This tribute to Earl Derr Bigger's famous detective and the old movies in which he appeared should not be missed by fans of the affable but perceptive detective from Hawaii.
