MURDER OF THE CAT'S MEOW

Mystery

Skye is always busy with her job as a school physchologist and her job with the Police department. However, when she gets called on to help with the latest attempt by Bunny Reid to make money, she feels she has no choice but to answer the call. Bunny has come up with an idea for an over 40 dating service mingled with a cat show. Skye arrives at the bowling alley to discover one of the participants dangling a judge from one his large hands. Skye's instincts force her to intervene.

When the body of the same judge is found later during the event, Skye will once again be drawn into a murder investigation. At the same time she will come across a conspiracy that will totally change the focus of the murder investigation.

I love this series. Scumble River is small town peopled with some unique characters. Skye is smart woman who is happy with herself and her life. The mysteries are always well-plotted; keeping readers interested and guessing the identity of the killer.

SUMMARY

When ex-Vegas showgirl and local business owner Bunny Reid starts an online dating service called Cupid's Cat’s Meow, out-of-town visitors flock to her bowling alley for the speed-dating and cat show events. Bunny’s scheme sounds harmless enough, but school psychologist Skye Denison knows all too well that an influx of strangers into Scumble River always spells trouble… Soon, Skye is called to the bowling alley to break up a fight between a riled-up contestant and the judge who insulted his feline. When the judge’s body is found — strangled with a cat toy — it’s up to Skye to solve the purrplexing mystery and show a devious killer that her sleuthing skills are the cat’s meow.
