Savannah and Aunt Margaret open the old Forster home to
the
Hammond Cat Alliance for a fundraiser to help
rehabilitate
the abused horses rescued months earlier from the
catnappers. Before the afternoon is over, the collected
funds go missing and someone is murdered in an upstairs
bedroom.
Suspicion surrounds Iris, a local waitress and
Savannah’s
new best friend. The only witness to the murder is Rags,
Savannah’s cat. With the assistance of a cat psychic and
Rags’s good friend, Charlotte (the young girl with
Downs),
the cat helps to “paw” the killer…but not before an
attempt
is made on Rags’s life. The case is solved only after
Rags
comes face-to-face with the killer for the second time.
Detective Craig Sledge is new to this book, as is
Damon,
Iris’s errant son. Sledge finds this to be one of the
muddiest cases he has ever worked, with inconsistent
clues
and no apparent motive. He’s constantly surprised,
perplexed
and impressed by the cat’s uncanny ability to come up
with
clues he has missed. His fascination with the attractive
Iris Clampton also mystifies the detective.
In this story, one of the rescued horses goes into
labor
and there’s a night of high drama at the ole corral as
veterinarians Savannah and Michael work to save the foal.
This experience renews Savannah’s deep interest in horses
and riding, which ultimately serves to help her bond with
a
very important surprise character who finds his way into
her
life and Michael’s just as they prepare to say their
wedding
vows.
While Rags is the animal star, he isn’t the only
animal
featured in this story. Layla is back in all of her
tangerine beauty. And Rags makes friends with Buffy, a
perky
almost Himalayan and the inseparable duo, Walter, an all
black cat and his sidekick, Lexie, a charming afghan mix.
Savannah’s new ride, Peaches, also debuts in this story.
An
incident with this mare adds another dimension to
Savannah’s
and Michael’s relationship. Can he hold her with open
arms?
Some say this is a love story with a mystery in the
background. And it’s a story of family and friendship as
newlyweds Margaret and Max continue to be a meaningful
part
of Savannah’s and Michael’s world.
