About the author

Rada was born in Transylvania, ten miles away from Dracula's Castle. Growing up between communists and vampires taught her that humans are fickle, but one can always rely on dogs and books.
After she immigrated to join her husband, she went to medical school, then worked in the ER for years, but she still speaks like Dracula's cousin.
Her thrillers feature Dr. Emma Steele, a not-so-young ER doc with a moody teenage daughter and a fondness for wine. If blood, gore and serial killers turn you on, check out OVERDOSE, MERCY, and POISON. If you're into dark medical humor, check her STAY AWAY FROM MY ER. But if you're into dogs, the K-9 Heroes series is for you.
To celebrate Gypsy, Rada's beloved German Shepherd, Emma adopted a quirky, bacon-loving K-9 named Guinness who runs her life through Mercy and Poison.

Love this series!!

[Laura Felty]

Very fun read

I love cruising. Dr Emma had to have a break from the ER. Why not do a contract gig on a cruise ship. I really did not predict this one.

[Jeanine]

Fast read

Have you ever been on a cruisse? Well, This one is a doosie. You learn about what is in the bowels of the ship. Beware of the staff though.

[Christine Cazeneuve]

So Exciting

These books are massively entertaining even if I truly believe that Emma is cursed lol! The stories will keep you guessing as to whodunit and are always satisfying. This is the fourth book in the series and my favorite so far. It takes place on a cruise ship and I loved learning about all the fascinating places, history, culture, cuisine and traditions that the different ports of call offered. Much different than the previous books. Can't wait to dive into the next one!

A fast moving, laugh out loud mystery

I enjoyed this book so much, I could hardly put it down. Sadly, it ended. Now I have to find more books by this author. Excellent writing. Draws the reader into the shipboard medical and keeps her there. Brava, Ms. Jones!

[Tina GOODRICH]

Another great book by Rada

Wow, couldn’t put it down it was riveting and exciting. Wasn’t able to suss out the villain. I’m usually good at doing that but not this time. Fast moving, great characters, a terrific read.

[Brenda S Frame]

Another great book about the ER and adventure

The star of the book leaves her FT position as ER Director and accepts a position as a physician on a cruise ship. Illness and death follows. What a trip!

[Sharen K. Lemen]

Different

This one didn't grab me like the others. One really exciting scene but mostly ho hum. Love Emma and her dog.

[sandra f williams]

awesome

It was a shame when I finished…it was so good! Cannot wait to start the next one in the series.

[Jill S]

Neat

Hard to imagine such crazy things happening on a cruise ship but interesting read nonetheless. Refreshing to no longer hear about her useless daughter.

[Amy Spielman]

again and again a great read

Love the book, it’s great cast, Emma Steele and of course Guinness as I always have a soft spot for dogs, although I think he is more human than dog.

[Karen]

Loved the first 3 books in this series but only liked this book for some reason. Hopefully #5 is good as the forst three

[Tonja]

entertaining and informative

Great read! Another thrilling adventure. A bit predictable at the end, but kept me intrigued. Looking forward to the next book

[Joanne M]

Excellent book, many possible suspects, surprise ending

[Karen]

Keeps you guessing till the end

[Kenneth M. Shepherd]

A refreshingly different and good plot from the traditional ER setting. Moving on to the next in the series.

[Brandi McCain]

(Yawn) How many times can the same dr just happen to meet a killer?? Lol It was an ok book. I only read it because it was part of the series. But it definitely was not as n interesting as the first and second.
