Belly and the Bastet

An ancient Egyptian artifact has been stolen, a man has been shot. The only witness to both crimes is a fluffy tiger-striped cat. Katherine Sanders, a retired investigative reporter, takes in the orphaned feline and together they follow a trail of clues that takes them back to a dig at the Valley of the Kings, the 1920's -era memoir of a deranged heiress and an old local murder. The ancient rituals and rites of a near-forgotten goddess are brought to life through the actions and beliefs of the strange criminal they are tracking through modern day Fort Worth Texas.
