Drama Cruise

About This Audiobook

When theater professors Nicky Abbondanza and Noah Oliver board an Alaskan cruise, their vacation takes a deadly turn. This isn't just any getaway—it's a high-stakes mystery where every passenger has secrets, and the ship’s glamorous facade hides sinister undercurrents. Cosentino delivers a sharp, campy satire of cruise culture, blending LGBTQ+ humor with genuine suspense. The setting is a character itself: icy fjords, clashing personalities, and a killer lurking beneath the deck parties. If you love your mysteries with a side of glitter and a dash of danger, this is your next listen.

The audiobook’s strength lies in Brad Enright’s narration, which balances snarky wit with genuine tension. His performance elevates the campy dialogue and makes Nicky’s over-the-top antics feel both hilarious and endearing. The pacing keeps you hooked, with twists that land hard and red herrings that feel organic—not forced. Cosentino’s writing is clever, but it’s Enright’s delivery that turns this from a solid mystery into a must-listen for fans of queer storytelling with bite.
