Description:
After conducting a scientific poll that would put Dick Morris to shame, resident busybody Essie Sue Margolis (already notorious for her matzo ball diet and deadly bagel debacles) has divined that Rabbi Kapstein's approval rating has plummeted to an all-time low at Temple Rita. Desperate to revive the rabbi's woeful "charisma quotient", Essie Sue hears through the kosher grapevine about a cut-rate Caribbean liner helmed by a Jewish sea captain. A bargain! A vacation! And a fundraiser, all in one! What could possibly go wrong?

Oy. Grab the Dramamine -- or maybe something with a little more zing. Because seasickness turns out to be the least of everyone's worries. This is a cruise to die for -- literally, in the case of ship lecturer Willie Bob, who collapses mysteriously at the outset. Ruby the rabbi's wife is back in action, braving the ship's no-star culinary fare, warding off the lascivious Captain Goldberg, suffering the nightly Elvis impersonators -- and stumbling into an unexpected romance. The trouble is, her suitor may also be the killer.
A fast-paced puzzler full of quirky, clever humor, Don't Cry for Me, Hot Pastrami is Sharon Kahn's most delicious Ruby adventure yet.
