Mystery Cozy
Mayville Heights has been deluged with excessive rain. The
artist's coop is flooding. Maggie and Kathleen are moving
everything out that could be affected by the flooding.
Kathleen heads out to Wisteria Hill to feed the feral cats
with Marcus. A bank gives way with Maggie on it and she slides with all
the mud. The slide exposes a skull. Marcus will start
investigating the identity of the skeleton. Then one of the
artists is found dead later at the coop. Jaeger Miller is
found floating in the basement. Since it is well known that
he and Maggie disagreed on many of the policies of the coop,
Maggie becomes the prime suspect. Now, Kathleen has two investigations. The skeleton has been
identified as Thomas Karlsson, Roma's father, who
disappeared when she was young. Roma is the local vet and a
good friend of Kathleen's. As the investigation progresses, Kathleen will learn that
Wisteria Hill was more than a home, it was a way station for
abused women. The investigation into Jaeger Miller will
expose blackmail and forgeries. Kathleen and her magical cats, Hercules and Owen will bring
the truth to light and expose the killers. COPYCAT KILLING is a wonderful addition to the enjoyable
Magical Cats series which features two cats with lots of
personality and a few tricks to their bag.
SUMMARY
Everyone thinks their cats are special—but Owen and
Hercules have powers that go far beyond an adorable look
or an irresistible purr. Along with their owner, librarian
Kathleen Paulson, they have an uncanny instinct for
solving crimes... It's been raining cats and dogs in Mayville Heights. The
small town's been deluged, and now the local artists' co-
op is on the verge of flooding. Kathleen has been up all
night helping her friends move their creations to the
safety of the upstairs studio. The artwork survives, but when controversial mask maker
Jaeger Merrill is found drowned in the co-op basement,
Kathleen questions whether the death was accidental. After
she discovers the artist was using an assumed name, she
realizes she can't actually assume anything about him.
With the help of handsome detective Marcus Gordon—and her
cats' extraordinary powers of detection—it's up to
Kathleen to unmask a killer.
