Nora Charles doesnβt believe in fate, even if she is a crime reporter who shares a name with a character from The Thin Man. In fact, sheβs moving back to Cruz, California, to have a quieter life. But after finding an online magazine eager for material, and a stray cat named Nick with a talent for detection, Noraβs not just reporting crimes again. Sheβs uncovering themβ¦
Back in her hometown, Nora reconnects with old friends and makes some new ones, like Nick, the charming feline who seems determined to be her cat. But not everything about Cruz is friendly. Writing for a local online magazine, Nora investigates the curious death of socialite Lola Grainger. Though it was deemed an accident, Nora suspects foul play. And it seems that her cat does too.
Apparently, Nick used to belong to a P.I. who disappeared while investigating Lola Graingerβs death. The coincidence is spooky, but not as spooky as the clues Nick spells out for her with Scrabble lettersβclues that lead her down an increasingly dangerous path. Whether fate put her on this case or not, solving it will take all of Noraβs wits, and maybe a few of Nickβs nine lives.
