A perfectly spooky night of dining and fun for couples, families, small groups, and even company parties

In the comedy murder mystery, Chicago’s No. 1 crime boss, Don Donatello Giovani, opens his Opera Lover’s Convention Hall (speakeasy) to a wedding reception for his about-to-designated No. 2 man, Fingers Vinerelli, and his new bride, Bunny Beckenstein.

Big Louie Alto is celebrating his anniversary as the head of the Altos "family enterprise," and all of his friends -- and possibly a few enemies -- are at the party. By his side are the lovely-but-deadly Scarlet Smith and his sweet innocent daughter, Luccia. Jonnie Darling, Big Louie's chauffeur, also has found a place at Big Louie's table, but Big Louie’s nephew, Spats Alto, wants to take away his chair. And then there's Vicci Vex, who sings like a nightingale and was discovered by Big Louie in a nightclub. She'll be entertaining the family with Big Louie's favorite numbers. Rumor has it that he intends to announce his successor at the party and everyone is secretly clamoring for the honor.

What happens when an eccentric British billionaire takes his beautiful young wife on an ocean cruise and they cross paths with a notorious playboy, a cruise ship entertainer with a few too many years of experience, and a young activities director whose words have a cutting edge as sharp as a clever – and then add in a mysterious know-it-all who revels in stirring the pot? What you get are twists and turns and fireworks that will make this “A Cruise to Remember: Mystery Afloat.”
