Publisher Description
Ex marks the murder scene…or does it?
New relationships can be fraught with emotional missteps. Charity Hughes’s awkward encounter with Shelby Howard, Noah Jenkins’s ex, at his front door certainly qualifies, but as they’re clearing up that sort-of-minor misunderstanding, a new challenge enters Charity’s shop. A witch’s cat familiar pining for the impossible — kittens of her own.
The kitty conundrum takes a back seat when a frantic Shelby calls with a rather pointed problem. An ex-fiancé dead on her living room floor, run through with an antique sword. Now the prime suspect, Shelby begs Charity for help to prove her innocence.
There’s just one problem. Using magic to solve the case risks outing her as a witch to the public...including Noah. But Charity brings all her somewhat-inconsistent abilities to bear in the investigation, even calling on Milo, the spaniel familiar, to nose around. But it’s the Tarot that cuts through the static toward a culprit who's definitely not an ex-anything.
It's someone who opens a whole new kit and caboodle of lies.
Customer Reviews
A good cozy mystery!
Cauldrons and Cats is the second book in Christine Pope’s Familiar Spirits series.
I received an ARC copy and this review is my honest opinion.
If you are looking for spoilers or a synopsis, you won’t find them here. To me, spoilers ruin the book and you can read the synopsis where you purchased the book.
This book, like most of the author’s, is a cozy mystery. What does that mean you ask. There’s a murder, no I’m not going to tell you who. There isn’t any explicit sex, although there is plenty of kissing and trips to the bedroom. The main character solves the mystery with the help of her, usually, friends. It’s cozy. Something you would like to read the makes you feel good without being too long or thought provoking.
Christine Pope is one of the queens of the cozy mystery and this book does not disappoint. The main characters are people I would like to meet. The location is beautifully described. And the story line is easy to follow even if there are big reveals at the end.
I read a lot of books with the most of them right now being complex, hard hitting mysteries that take you hours to read. But I love Christine’s books! When the rest of the world is going crazy, I know her books will take me to someplace I’d like to visit with people I’d like to meet. They are cozy and I hope you enjoy this and the rest of her books as much as I do!
