Mystery Cozy

Clyde, the cat has become a national celebrity. With reporters hounding the animal shelter his staying at, Jillian is asked to foster him. Clyde was given away since his owner was ill. When Clyde escapes and returns to his home, he finds his owner dead. A human interest story if ever the was one. Jillian and her three cats are open to protecting Clyde from the reporters who want to find their own minutes of fame. One particular reporter is convinced that she can leave the weather behind, if she can just get the scoop she needs. Even though Clyde's owner, Norm, had cancer, it is discovered that he died of an overdose of digoxin. With Candace investigation a suspicious death, Jillian and Tom must protect Clyde from the press. When Clyde escapes, the press become even more persistent. While not as enamored of cats as the author is, Ms. Sweeney comes close to making me wish I had one. It's always a pleasure to enter the world of Jillian and Tom as they set out to discover the killer. The Cat in Trouble series is a favorite of mine. THE CAT, THE VAGABOUND, AND THE VICTIM adds another satisfying read to the series.

SUMMARY

Heir of the cat... When Clyde the cat travels two hundred miles back home only to find his former owner dead, the story makes national news. While everyone seems eager to tell Clyde’s incredible tale, someone needs to step up to care for him. Because the media attention is creating chaos at the local shelter, cat quilter Jillian Hart agrees to foster the loyal orange tabby, hoping his location is kept secret. But while the media circus around Clyde continues, Jillian learns the real story behind his owner’s death—he was murdered. Why would an eldery man already dying from a serious illness become a murder victim? As the local police search for an answer, Clyde makes another escape. Jillian is drawn into the case when she finds Clyde has returned to his home again—and he’s found another body. When the motive behind these murders is finally revealed, Jillian understands Clyde is in danger of becoming the next victim, and she must help find the killer before the claws really come out.…
