IT'S TROUBLE AT SEAS WHEN Goldie and Godiva's eighty-year old mother Flossie and Uncle Sterling Silver, former Vaudeville magicians, are invited on a relaxing cruise.

Goldie's husband, Captain Red Pepper, has arranged forthem to sail on his ship, the Aurora Borealis, and mingle with magicians during the Magic on the High Seas cruise. Goldie thinks it's a great idea and her twin sister, Godiva, sees it as a chance to keep the old folks out of trouble while she spends time with her new boyfriend, Dexter Diamond.

They even connive to bring Waldo the Wonder Dog along masquerading as a service dog, and it's a good thing they do.

Magic turns to mayhem when one of the star magicians is murdered on board and Uncle Sterling becomes a suspect. The FBI gets involved and soon the whole Silver family is caught up in the search for an international jewel thief. How will the feisty octogenarians get out of hot water this time? When can Goldie Silver return to her quiet antique shop in Juneau? Will advice columnist, Godiva Olivia DuBois, find true love this time around?

And, what was thrown into the dumpster that made Sterling look very guilty?
