Summary: An exciting who-done-it that captures the magic of Alaska
Comment: Alaska state trooper Sergeant Alex Jensen and his girlfriend Iditarod
veteran Jessie Arnold are excited as they join the centennial celebration
of the famous Klondike gold rush. On board the cruise ship is many famous
people and a million dollars worth of gold. This is expected to be the
gala event of the season and Alex plans to relish the event by wearing full
dress attire at the party.
Everything changes when rooms are broken into and valuables stolen. Things get even nastier when someone tries to murder a celebration official. They turn downright ugly when a crew member is found dead. Alex and Jessie begins to investigate the incidents in which there are many suspects, including someone(s) who prefer to remain anonymous.
No one does Alaska (historical and present) better than Sue Henry does and her fourth Alex Jensen mystery enhances her reputation for brilliantly scribing the final frontier. Though the dialogue occasionally seems artificial, the lead characters remain refreshingly huggable and the story line is fast paced and extremely interesting. Readers will want to book a ticket on the cruise ship, DEATH TAKES PASSAGE. The audience will know that they have gotten their money's worth.

Summary: Shipboard mystery
Comment: The Spirit of '98, a small cruise ship, sets sail up the Inside Passage of Alaska to commemorate the Gold Rush of 1898. Alex Jensen and his girlfriend Jessie Arnold are aboard as official representatives of the State of Alaska. Alex is looking forward to a leisurely cruise, but his police skills are called into play when some valuable items are stolen from several staterooms. Soon the problems compound when a dead body is found in the water and one of the crewmembers disappears. In the meantime, 2 men have stolen a sailboat and later a powerboat to commit a crime which is unknown to them. Eventually the two story lines merge and the entire ship is threatened by a diabolical plot. Alex untangles the mystery and sets out to save the ship from imminent danger. Sue Henry can always be counted on for wonderful descriptions of Alaska interwoven with an intriguing mystery.

Summary: Passage to Adventure
Comment: I took almost the same voyage with the Cruise West's Spirit of Endeavor from Juneau to Seattle a few years ago. This book relives that Inner Passage voyage with the Spirit of 98 brilliantly. Each town is described excellently. Mystery was inventive. I recognized so many real people in this book. The author must have enjoyed writing this immensely and it shows. A wonderful series. Got out all my pictures from that voyage to enjoy once again. Great adventure!
