What They're Saying
Critics Review
”… part mystery, part travelogue, and part scavenger hunt and all-around great fun.” * Booklist Online *
“A touching, humorous tale of self-discovery and adventure, Elizabeth Sails is the perfect escapist weekend read.”
– Elizabeth Penney, Edgar-nominated author of mysteries and women’s fiction
“Owens creates an unlikely yet absolutely delightful protagonist in Elizabeth Sails that readers will easily identify with, commiserate with, and ultimately fall in love with.
Beth Schiff sets out on a mysterious journey that reduces her comfort zone to a mere memory, discovering she is stronger than she thought and deserves much more than she was previously willing to accept.
Add the fabulous luxury liner, exquisite fine dining, and practically unlimited clothing and cruise allowance, and readers will adore every page.” – Barbara Conrey, USA Today bestselling author of Nowhere Near Goodbye and My Secret to Keep
Oh, what fun it is sailing with Elizabeth Schiff, solving an elaborate international scavenger hunt while enjoying glorious days and nights aboard a luxury liner.
Readers who enjoyed Annabel Monaghan’s Nora Goes Off Script, or Bonnie Garmus’ Lessons in Chemistry will love Owen’s quirky, stumbling, but clever Elizabeth, as she races the clock to prevent a sleazy character from stealing a fortune meant for charity.
But under the surface of the beautifully painted cerulean waters is a story of a woman who needs to dig deep within herself and her past in order to forgive and free herself in order to move on. – Tracey Enerson Wood, Internationally Best Selling Author of The Engineer’s Wife, The War Nurse, and The President’s Wife.
