Description

Professor Vlad Chomsky needs a break after saving the town of Crawford, Wisconsin from terrorists, and he knows exactly how to get the rest and relaxation he needs-a romantic Rhine River cruise with the lovely librarian Beatrice Krup. Vlad imagines sharing his passion for history with Beatrice as they tour the castles, museums, and cathedrals of Germany, while spending warm spring evenings together watching the river glide by-without his ex-wife and kids, and especially without his elderly landlady Sandra Tooksbury, her friend and handyman Norm, and her feisty toy poodle, Gaston. Yes, Gaston helped Vlad save Crawford, but he doesn't need a crowd watching-and offering advice-as he takes his relationship to Beatrice "to the next level."But Vlad has forgotten Norm and Sandra's ability to show up just when they aren't wanted and is dismayed when Sandra hoodwinks her way on board the cruise, Norm and Gaston in tow.When Norm becomes the prime suspect in a diamond heist, Vlad's hopes for a quite, romantic cruise are shattered. Will Gaston and the gang discover the real thief in time? And will finally have a chance to "pop the question" to Beatrice? This is the second adventure of Vlad, Gaston the Poodle, and all of their friends. You can find out more about them in Jan Detrie's first book, The Seven Ten Split.
