Mitchell Graham is a welcome new voice on the thriller scene with his book, Majestic Descending. Katherine Adams, an Atlanta lawyer dealing in domestic cases, sees herself as "damaged goods" because as a teenager she was abducted by a madman. Now she's off on an oft-delayed cruise to Europe with her best pal and old college roommate. They board the Ocean Majestic in Miami along with biogenetics professor Ellis Stephens, who's just made a discovery that promises major medical miracles and vast personal wealth. Perhaps aimed at both a thriller and romance audience, this novel is entertaining and definitely can be recommended as a page-turner.
