Publisher Description
The fur is really going to fly when groomer Cassie McGlone drags in a catnapper . . .
With her new van, Cassie has expanded her Comfy Cat business to include mobile cat grooming. Next stop: a cat expo at a hotel just outside her hometown of Chadwick, New Jersey, where Cassie will give a grooming demo using shelter cats to encourage adoption while her veterinarian boyfriend Mark will offer a program on cat care and health.
The highlight of the expo will be a major cat show featuring pop sensation Jaki Natal. Almost as famous as his owner is her pet Gordie, a Scottish fold, who's become a social media darling. But when adorable Gordie goes missing and his sitter is found murdered, Jaki is having kittens. While the cops are more interested in solving the murder of a human, Jaki insists Cassie help expose the catnapper and return gorgeous Gordie to the fold. Now it's Cassie's turn to solo as she plays a deadly game of cat-and-mouse with a culprit who's not afraid to pounce . . .

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In Watkins's enticing fourth mystery featuring cat groomer Cassie McGlone (after 2018's Feral Attraction), the 2019 North Jersey Cat Expo is coming to Chadwick, N.J., and Cassie has volunteered to give grooming demonstrations in her new mobile grooming van. The expo's star attraction will be pop singer Jaki Natal and her Scottish Fold cat, Gordie. Jaki's manager is unsure about her participating, however, since a stalker has recently been sending her love letters and gifts, but Jaki loves her cat and wants to be a part of the show. On the first day, Gordie is catnapped during a power outage, and a security guard is later found murdered. At Jaki's request, Cassie, who has a reputation as a sleuth, leaps into the investigation and ends up in a deadly cat-and-mouse game with Gordie's abductor. A second murder puts everyone on high alert. Distinctive characters, all of whom contribute to the crime solving in one way or another, drive the well-paced plot. Cat cozy lovers will be enchanted.
