The Last Full Measure

A pleasure cruise, a treasure hunt, swing music, and murder? who could ask for anything more? In late November 1941, swing musician Katy Green joins two old friends in a dance band on the SS Lurline en route to Honolulu. Hidden treasure at their destination could make them rich, but murder—as well as World War II—is in the offing. Swing music fans, nostalgia buffs and history enthusiasts will enjoy the authentic period and musical detail in this delightful historical mystery. And Stanford and Cal graduates will enjoy the traditional Big Game rivalry aboard ship! A vintage postcard of the SS Lurline introduces each of the 13 chapters, as well as cover and frontispiece illustrations.
