The Cat's Paw (The 9 Lives Cozy Mystery Series, Book 2‪)‬

"Loved the story, loved the mystery and, of course, the cat. I highly recommend this book to cozy mystery lovers." ~ Patricia Eroh, eBook Discovery

Christy Jamieson has just confronted the person who murdered her husband, Frank, when Frank's wealthy Aunt Ellen arrives unexpectedly, suitcase in hand. Ellen's home has become a crime scene, and she intends to stay with Christy.

No one is happy about the arrangement, but the most furious member of the Jamieson household is Stormy the Cat.

Wanting the woman out of her hair, Christy investigates with her journalist friend Quinn, only to discover that the body on Aunt Ellen's terrace was the woman who provided an alibi for the person complicit in Frank's murder.

But the deeper Christy and Quinn dig into the connection between the dead woman and Aunt Ellen, the clearer it becomes that the only one who can unravel the truth is Stormy the Cat.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Louise Clark has been the adopted mom of a number of cats with big personalities. The feline who inspired Stormy, the cat in the 9 Lives books, dominated her household for twenty loving years. During that time he created a family pecking order that left Louise on top and her youngest child on the bottom (just below the guinea pig), regularly tried to eat all his sister's food (he was a very large cat), and discovered the joys of travel during a cross-continent road trip.

The 9 Lives Cozy Mystery Series—as well as the standalone mystery A Recipe for Trouble—are all set in her hometown of Vancouver, British Columbia.
