The beautiful, serene village of Molena Point, California is
the type of place where people go to get away from the
harsher realities of life––which is what attracted classic
film star Patty Rose to buy the village inn, and settle down
to enjoy her golden years. But as the town gathers to
celebrate and honor the beautiful, aging actress with a
festival of her old films, Patty is brutally murdered––to
the horror and shock of this peaceful burg.
A gentle
tortoiseshell cat, Kit, has been enjoying a retreat to the
animal–loving actress's inn, where she's spending time with
her feline friends Dulcie, and the slick tomcat sleuth, Joe
Grey. But her relaxation is cut short when she hears the
gunshots that end Patty's life, and sees her dead body
sprawled on the inn's front steps. She glimpses the killer
racing into the parking garage, and soon follows his trail.
Joe and Dulcie must now follow the naïve Kit's
trail, and keep her from getting into serious trouble. To
complicate matters, Joe discovers that Dulcie has been
hiding a runaway child––one of the lucky humans that these
special cats choose to talk to––who has now been kidnapped,
likely by the same man who killed their famous friend. In
the end, the little girl's abduction leads them to Patty's
killer, and the feline friends are all united––but they all
must mourn a departed friend as they stand beside the newly
laid grave of Patty Rose.
