If you are planning to read this book, one can safely assume that you have checked out others in Scott's SF Sectors Romance series. The first I read was Wreck Of the Nebula Dream, a Titanic-style thriller set aboard a space-liner that meets disaster.
This title is similar, in that it takes place on a luxury space cruiser and meets disaster, of a very different kind. As often happens on "terran" cruise ships, a passenger comes down with a "virus" and it rapidly spreads. B... this is only the first stage.
As usual with Scott's tales, one is immediately drawn in by the depth of characters: from the annoying snobbiness of the upper class folks to the understated heroism of military officer turned doctor Emily, who is still traumatized by previous war experience.
This experience serves her well as, along with security officer Jake, (where the romantic interest arises) must figure out how to save the lives of all the effected passengers while dealing with clashing personalities, complicated politics, and one who is interested only in getting footage for his "trideos" (movies/documentaries). I found it a really good listen, as her usual narrator for this series brought it to life in the way he always does. Enjoy.

I started this story uncertain of its premise. Then it became clear that I was reading yet another apocalyptic thriller. But wait! This one was more interesting, because of the way the author plays with memories as they are manipulated by a powerful, psychic cult. At its height, I left late for work three times for being so engrossed. Glad the sequel is not long in coming.
