Notes & Requirements
Summary: "Mrs. Blossom has a knack for blending into the background. But when she finds a winning lottery ticket in a parking lot, everything changes. She is determined to see the world. When Mrs. Blossom booked her cruise through France on the MS Solitaire, she did not expect to meet Allan on her transatlantic flight. He is the first man who's sparked something inside her since her husband passed. She also didn't expect Allan to be found, dead, twenty-four hours later in Paris, a city he wasn't supposed to be in. Now she doesn't know who to trust on board the ship, especially when a mystifying man, Danny, keeps popping up around every corner. He is convinced that Allan was transporting a stolen piece of art, and Mrs. Blossom knows more than she lets on. Mrs. Blossom's questions only increase as the cruise sails down the Seine. Why does it feel like she is being followed? Who was Allan, and why was he killed? Most alarmingly, why do these mysterious men keep flirting with her?"
