Winter in Mayville Heights is keeping Kathleen hopping.
Determined to fund her Reading Buddies program for
another year, everyone has pitched in to help with the
fund raiser. With the gala and the wedding of her best
friend coming up, there is a lot to do.
The gala is stopped when a woman drops dead at the event.
The ex-wife of the mysterious Burtis Chapman, Dayna
Chapman hasn't been to Mayville Heights in over 20 years.
As Marcus starts the police investigation, Kathleen can't
help but ask questions about who would want to kill a
woman who hasn't been in town in such a long time.
Kathleen and her magical cats, Owen and Hercules, will
find their way to the truth. A long held secret will
lead to the identity of the killer and nearly result in
Kathleen's death.
Another entry in the Magical Cats Mystery series is
always something to look forward to. A MIDWINTER'S TAIL
fulfilled every expectation. It's good to see Marcus and
Kathleen renewing their relationship,having worked
through their differences. Owen and Hercules always
provide a bit of comic relief to the story. Owen with
his catnip addiction and Hercules with his distaste for
getting his feet wet, also aid Kathleen in her sleuthing.
If you haven't introduced yourself to this series yet,
you should. You'll want to spend some time in Mayville
Heights, despite the winter chill.
SUMMARY
Kathleen Paulson is snowed under running her library and
caring for her extraordinary felines, Owen and Hercules.
But
when a fund-raiser turns deadly, she’ll have to add
sleuthing to her already full schedule.... Winter in Mayville Heights is busy and not just because of
the holidays. Kathleen is hard at work organizing a
benefit
to raise money for the library’s popular Reading Buddies
program. She has her hands full hosting the event. And when a guest at the gala drops dead, her magical cats,
Owen and Hercules, will have their paws full helping her
solve a murder. The victim is the ex of town rascal Burtis Chapman, but
she
hasn’t lived in the area in years. And though everybody is
denying knowledge of why she was back in town, as Kathleen
and her detective boyfriend, Marcus, begin nosing around,
they discover more people are connected to the deceased
than
claimed to be. Now Marcus, Kathleen, and her uncanny cats have to unravel
this midwinter tale before the case gets cold.
