Mysteries at Sea: The Hollywood Kidnap Case by Am Howell

Alice and Sonny investigate the kidnapping of a Hollywood star, in this thrilling installment of the bestselling Mysteries at Sea series, from award-winning author A.M. Howell.

Alice and Sonny's family yacht is in Egypt, ready to pick up famous actress Estelle Fortune, and take her to London to film her next blockbuster movie.

But just before the boat leaves, Alice discovers that Estelle has vanished! In her room is a note, threatening that unless a large amount of money is paid in Malta in a few days' time, Estelle will be thrown overboard.
