About this audiobook

A Mediterranean cruise gives glass shop owner Savannah Webb a chance to demonstrate her expertise-and fire up her skills when it comes to foul play . . .

When Savannah signs on to perform glass blowing on a ship that departs from the UK, part of the appeal is that she'll get a chance to meet her boyfriend Edward's family. An added bonus is that Edward's cousin, Ian, will be joining them on board. But when Ian disappears at the beginning of the cruise, the ship's authorities initially consider it suicide.

Savannah tries to balance her growing suspicions with work on her shows, but her relationship with the other glass artists begins to crack. And she can't let love color her judgment when Edward suddenly jumps to the top of the suspect list. His fate is in Savannah's hands, and she'll do everything she can-on land and sea-to clear his name . . .

    I really enjoy Webb's Glass Shop Mysteries, and this one did not disappoint. This story leaves Florida and takes place on the high seas. Glass shop owner Savannah Webb takes a job on a cruise ship for a series of artistic glassblower demonstrations. Before boarding the ship, Savannah and Edward stop in England to visit with his parents and meet the rest of his family. His cousin Ian, has just graduated from University and his parents have gifted him this cruise. No sooner do they board the ship when Ian goes missing. Ian checked in and then vanished. Cruise ship security suspect Ian jumped overboard, but Savannah doesn’t believe he’d take his life. She enlists her friends to aid her in tracking his movements. When Edward is arrested for his disappearance and possible murder, Savannah steps up her investigation calling in her employees over the internet to do what they do best. Was Edward imagining things when he spotted a thug from his past on the ship’s deck? Why has he never shared his shady past with Savannah?

    The mystery unfolds amidst glassblowing details and trips to the ship’s buffet. There was a few spots that were a bit slow, but overall this was a well-paced story. I loved that the twins came on the cruise as well and we learned a bit more about them. They were also more involved in this story than in past ones. This light-hearted mystery will have you yearning to go on a cruise and perhaps learn more about glass blowing. Shattered at Sea is a delightful cozy mystery that will keep you turning pages.

    Savannah Webb accepts a job on a cruise ship to fill in for a glass blower. She arranges for her boyfriend Edward to come along and after stopping in to see his family, his younger cousin, Ian, comes along for the cruise. Ian d is appears so much of Savannah's off hours are spent trying to find him. Did he go overboard? Is her still here? Is he hiding for some reason?This was fun because of the look at the other side of cruising - the crew rules and regulations, etc. The characters are still fun and it was great to see the ones left behind at home still got to take part in the investigation.

    I really enjoyed this cozy mystery and learned a bit about glass blowing. I received this book for free and I voluntarily chose to review this. I've given this a 5* rating. This has a lot going on, romance, mystery, missing people and a lot of crafty glass blowing. So much to learn about this craft. I imagine it would be an interesting thing to watch. Well, it kept me guessing till almost the end with an happy ending.

    Once again Cheryl Hollon has us riveted to our seats in this captivating page turner in her new installment of her Webb's Glass Shop Mystery series in Shattered at Sea.Savannah and Edward are going on a cruise where Savannah will do her glass blowing which sounds like a good time right? Not when Ian, a cousin to Edward, goes missing and the other artists on board are hard to deal with and then Edward becomes a suspect in the whole mess which really puts a damper on the whole cruise. To salvage the cruise and her relationship Savannah has to solder all the pieces in the puzzle together and hopefully clear Edward while figuring out what really happened.I just love how we are joining some of the unique characters again to solve a mystery in a thrilling setting aboard a cruise ship while throwing so many curves and suspects in the mix to keep you enthralled till the end. I really enjoyed once again the way the author weaves the glass art into the story which adds an extra uniqueness to it. I found in this book that Savannah has grown more confident and has evolved more to being a real leader and a smart, bold woman who uses her wits to solve the mystery with the help of her friends. Edward her boyfriend is a mystery himself, one where I find myself questioning his motives at times and wondering if he is hiding something but then I see the good in him and think he can't be bad. The relationship between him and Savannah is growing which is awesome but she has to help clear his name when he becomes the number one suspect. That always puts a damper on a relationship.I think if you like a good riveting mystery, with strong characters and a unique setting then you will enjoy this book. I can't wait for the next book in the series.I received this book for my honest opinion and review

    Shattered at Sea by Cheryl Hollon is A Webb’s Glass Shop Mystery. Savannah Webb has been hired to be a replacement glass artist on the Mediterranean cruise ship, Obscura. On route to Barcelona, Savannah and her boyfriend, Edward stop in St. Albans, England to visit with his parents and pick up Edward’s cousin, Ian Morris who will be joining them on the cruise. Savannah is surprised and pleased to see Rachel and Faith Rosenburg on the ship. After getting settled, Savannah introduces herself to the glass blowing crew and settles in for the first glass demonstration. The next morning, Ian has disappeared, and the ship’s security believes he committed suicide or accidently fell overboard. Ian had drunk quite heavily and, according to the twins, Ian was feeling despondent. Edward and Savannah with help from the Faith and Rachel, search for Ian on the ship, but they are unsuccessful. They are certain that Ian is hiding, but they do not know why. Can Savannah and Edward find Ian before it is too late?A Webb’s Glass Shop Mystery series is one of my favorite cozy mystery series. The book is set in St. Petersburg, Florida which is near to where I live. I like reading about familiar sights along with the beautiful creations Savannah makes from glass. The series also contains friendly characters that I enjoy visiting in each new book. Shattered at Sea has Savannah, Edward and the Rosenburg twins, but we only get a glimpse of Amanda Blake and Jacob Underwood. I am happy, though, that the author found a way to include them. I thought Shattered at Sea was easy to read, but the pace was a little slow. Instead of a murder, we have a missing person’s case. Personally, I found the storyline slightly farfetched. I do not want to say too much and spoil it for you. There are a limited number of suspects and identifying the guilty party is unchallenging. There was a lack of tension and suspense. I felt that certain details were off in the book and the resolution seemed incomplete. I appreciated the levity the twins provided to the book and it was interesting to learn about a different method of glassblowing. It was also nice that Savannah was creating glass pieces in this book (back to her roots). I did not like the details Edward revealed about his past and they did not go with his character. My rating for Shattered at Sea is 3 out of 5 stars. If you have not read any of the previous books in this series, I recommend starting with Pane and Suffering. The ending is satisfying and will have leave you smiling. While Shattered as Sea is not my favorite book in A Webb’s Glass Shop Mystery series, I am looking forward to reading Savannah’s next tale.
