The Godmother (Patricia Fisher Adventure Mysteries, #8)

What can I say?

I've run out of words! Every review is beginning to sound the same! It's good! It's Great! I love it! However, I somehow missed this episode of Patricia's adventures & had to backtrack, but that's perfectly OK, since the books are stand alone's as well as a series. So, now I'm caught up, wondering what's next! I Iove Patricia & her crew! I love that the stories are good & that they're fun & funny! Sometimes a bit silly, but that only adds to the fun. I appreciate how the stories, while a bit more violent than I'd like, are not gory & explicit, not sexually explicit either. Just clean, cozy mysteries. This was, I believe, the 1st of Steve Higgs books in which I've ever seen an honest to goodness bad word! I was surprised, I must say, but 1 word out of 20-some books? Not too bad! So now...Onward bound to see what messes Patricia & gang get into next! The Godmother (Patricia Fisher Adventure Mysteries, #8) Patricia is the best

I'm addicted to this series and hope Steve keeps writing Patricia for a long time to come. Do yourself a favor and start at the beginning. Enjoy. The Godmother (Patricia Fisher Adventure Mysteries, #8) We're back on the cruise ship Aurelia with Patricia Fisher and her friends for another gripping journey.

Back with her beau Captain Alistair Huntley. Patricia has come aboard the ship in order to avoid the Godmother, who is a criminal of the worst kind, and an extremely clever enemy.

As the head the Alliance of Families, a collective of criminal gangs whose influence is worldwide, she is a very dangerous enemy indeed. She is posing as a passenger called Verity Tuppence, who is supposedly enjoying a special holiday with her husband and their dachshund.

Patricia has inconvenienced the Godmother's criminal operations on a number of occasions and has not only cost her a great deal of money, but has made her look a fool to the other criminal bosses, into the bargain. Thus making her 'lose face' with them. Therefore, the Godmother has decided to eliminate Patricia herself, and has used the disguise of a wife on holiday with her husband as a ploy to get close to Patricia.

Verity has managed to get close to Patricia and is now pretending to be Patricia's new friend. Having met on the ship when it stopped to pick up passengers in Canada; she has used her little dachshund as an icebreaker with Patricia; that is until Patricia became suspicious of something about Verity's dog, and did some background checks, which led her to discover the truth about Verity.

The story which unfolds is splendid. Verity has so much to lose and she cannot allow Patricia to live to leave the ship at the end of the voyage.

I really enjoyed Verity. As bad guys go, she, being female, grabbed my attention when her name popped up some time ago in a previous book. She is deliciously devious and has a flaire for the dramatic. Choosing to come after Patricia in a the confined space of the area of the Aurelia, makes the tension ratchett up by a few degrees. As a woman who is used to sending others to eliminate people who annoy or otherwise displease her, makes the fact that she is actually taking care of Patricia herself all the more juicy. Her husband is a dry counterpart to her vibrancy..rarely speaking and then usually answering in a grunt. I liked his dry demeanor, it was perfection.

The story itself is filled with pockets of suspense, mixed in with outbreaks of violence, and intermingled with sudden burst of confusion and misdirection . All in all a blooming good yarn. I'm happy to have read it. It was very entertaining
The Godmother (Patricia Fisher Adventure Mysteries, #8) Another really thrilling book with Patricia Fischer and the Godmother dueling each other and making elaborate games to deceive each other and reach an ending for this goose chase. There´s a lot of action, a lot of tears, many unexpected surprises (not all of them good) and, as always, a lot of gin tonics and tea!
Very entertaining reading with Patricia finally reaching an ending with her fight to bring the Godmother down and to accepting to being part of her lover´s life.
As a member of the author´s ARC team I received a free copy of this book and this is my honest review. The Godmother (Patricia Fisher Adventure Mysteries, #8) Mrs Fisher and her friends are still on the Aurelia, and she now knows who the crime boss, The Godmother, really is. While Patricia is gathering everyone she can to help, the Godmother also seems to have brought on several assassins to get the woman who dared to cause trouble to her crime syndicate.

Of course, no Patricia Fisher story would be complete without several bombings, shootings, and deceptions. Sometimes it is hard to know who the bad guys really are (although I did :))

There is a side story: people are being robbed after attending a magic show. The victims appear dazed and have no memory of the crime taking place. Patricia suspects the perpetrators might not have been the fake hypnotist and his scantily clad assistant.

I love these madcap books (They should be started from the beginning of the series to fully appreciate the story line) and look forward to the next one, as this one give us a glimpse of the future. The Godmother (Patricia Fisher Adventure Mysteries, #8)

Love Patricia

This plot line was quite intriguing, was wondering how you were going to get the god mother nailed, well done, Steve.... great ending and all the characters are wonderful.... Patricia has really come into her own..... love the books, but they keep me awake at night wondering what’s going to happen and how she is going to catch the criminals The Godmother (Patricia Fisher Adventure Mysteries, #8) This is a brilliant read.
Wonderful well written plot and story line that had me engaged from the start.
Love the well fleshed out characters and found them believable.
Great suspense and found myself second guessing every thought I had continuously.
Can't wait to read what the author brings out next.
Recommend reading.

I read a complimentary advance copy of the book; this is my voluntary and this is my honest review.
The Godmother (Patricia Fisher Adventure Mysteries, #8) Holy crap. This cruise ship is cursed. Maybe the crew should be paid better to avoid all the bribery. The Godmother is seriously scary. I was disappointed that Mavis didn't help with the dark web research since she mentioned it in the previous book. Barbie may be a super gym instructor but she is just as efficient in web researching.
I do hope there are not as many deaths and robberies on my next cruise. The Godmother (Patricia Fisher Adventure Mysteries, #8) Chaos on overload!
The Godmother in this story is not the sweet, grant your wishes kind of gal...oh no. She's the kind that makes The Godfather look like her twin or her spouse. The chaos and bodies stack up to a crescendo ending. Will Patricia meet her end this time? Will she lose any dear friends? Read along and find out! Breathtaking ride from the very beginning!
The Godmother (Patricia Fisher Adventure Mysteries, #8) Patricia is still on board the cruise ship and investigating the Godmother as quietly as possible. She manages to get herself into tight places, hilarious hijinks and some frightening situations. Each book of this series has gotten better than the last and the same goes for The Godmother. Kudos to the author, it's getting five stars from me. The Godmother (Patricia Fisher Adventure Mysteries, #8)
