Cozy Cat Caper Mystery

Kat hasn't been back in her childhood hometown of Cherry Hills, Washington, very long before a murder next door thrusts her into a police investigation. She doesn't intend to get involved, but what choice does she have when Mrs. Tinsdale's now orphaned tortoiseshell cat shows up on her doorstep looking for help? After all, Matty was the sole witness to her owner's violent death and might just hold the key to solving this case.

But who would want to see the elderly Mrs. Tinsdale dead? Was it a fellow animal rescue volunteer, driven by a hidden agenda? Or perhaps Mrs. Tinsdale's money-hungry daughter could no longer wait for her much-needed inheritance. Kat also can't discount a local veterinarian possibly harboring dark secrets. Then again, the culprit might be someone entirely unexpected.

It doesn't hurt that this investigation puts Kat in close proximity with Andrew Milhone, Kat's old childhood friend turned handsome lead detective. But how can she persuade a feline eyewitness to reveal "whodunit"? Kat's not sure yet, but she's not going to give up until Mrs. Tinsdale's murderer is brought to justice—even if getting to the chilling truth means putting her own life in danger.

Cherry Hills resident Kat Harper doesn't expect her first meeting with the Furry Friends Foster Families animal rescue to kick off with the mysterious absence of another member. But it soon becomes clear why Willow Wu is a no-show; she's been arrested for a crime that nobody can believe.

Kat's convinced someone framed Willow. But who would do such a thing? A crooked small-town cop with big dreams? A local teenager looking for revenge? Or the disgruntled caterer who lost out on a lucrative job?

With this case hitting so close to home, Kat's determined to find the guilty party. And if she can cajole her cat Matty into lending another helping paw, the amateur detective might just succeed.

Between an old childhood rival, a sister in line to inherit everything, and a couple with opportunity aplenty, there's no shortage of suspects. Kat's going to need all of her sleuthing skills if she hopes to identify "whodunit" this time . . . especially when her cats Matty and Tom turn the case on its head and force her to question everything that happened that tragic night.

Kat Harper spent most of her childhood in foster care, being raised by strangers while the woman who gave her life quietly slipped into the shadows. Now in her thirties, Kat longs to locate the mother she barely remembers.

Little does she know, so do the police.

It turns out, Kat's mother is suspected of a crime that's gone unsolved for thirty years. And if Kat is successful in her quest, her mother might reenter her life only to spend her remaining years behind bars.

Torn between her greatest wish and her biggest fear, Kat's not sure what to do. Living in darkness for another thirty years isn't an option, but will her need for answers end up forever alienating the one person she yearns to connect with most?

What starts off as a foster dog wellness check turns into a nightmare when a gunshot leads Kat Harper to a man's dead body. Eric Halstead's killer is gone by the time Kat arrives on the scene, but the amateur sleuth isn't about to let them get away that easily.

By all accounts, this homicide appears to be a neighborhood dispute turned deadly. And now it's up to Kat to determine exactly which neighbor pulled the trigger. Was it the do-it-yourself handyman who didn't appreciate Eric's frequent noise complaints? Or could it have been the local newspaper thief who swears he knows something relevant to the murder but refuses to talk to the police? And Kat certainly can't discount the loudmouthed older gentleman who seems to have a not-always-popular opinion about everything.

Kat might not know "whodunit" yet, but she knows one thing for sure. There's a lot more than justice riding on this case. With Eric's death comes the need to rehome his beloved tuxedo cat. And if Kat's not careful, this animal rescue mission may end with the newly orphaned feline falling into the hands of a cold-blooded killer.

Kat Harper isn't the only one with a knack for stumbling upon crime scenes. This time she's led to the corpse du jour by her adventurous cat Matty and one determined dachshund. It doesn't take long before the dead man is identified as local dog walker Jeffrey Parr—and his doxie client could be the only eyewitness to this latest Cherry Hills homicide.

Kat doesn't set out to investigate, but what can she do when the task of reuniting the dachshund with his owner introduces her to more suspects than she can count? Between Jeffrey's disgruntled clients and his angry exes, Kat has her hands full trying to determine "whodunit." That might be a blessing in disguise though. As the amateur sleuth soon learns, success often comes with a price. And when Kat finds herself in the killer's crosshairs, it might just be up to her furry feline friends to save her from becoming the next murder victim.

Coming home to discover a beloved fur baby has gone missing is every pet parent's worst nightmare. But that's exactly what happens to Cherry Hills High School teacher Tracy Montgomery. The question is, did Midnight escape, or was he catnapped?

With all evidence suggesting the friendly black cat didn't sneak out on his own, Kat Harper and her fellow Furry Friends Foster Families animal rescue volunteers take it upon themselves to locate the elusive feline and reunite him with his frantic owner. Unfortunately, their only leads turn out to be a scrap of paper and the neighborhood witch's cryptic vision. But the lack of clues isn't going to deter Kat. Halloween is fast approaching, and giving up now could very well mean letting an animal thief triumph.

Kat Harper wants nothing more than to forget about her disastrous job interview, but that's pretty hard to do when your interviewer turns up dead. Now Kat's search for employment has turned into a search for a killer.

As Kat soon discovers, she has her work cut out for her. Leo Price left behind quite a few enemies, including a struggling former business partner and a bevy of ex-girlfriends. But the amateur sleuth isn't going to let the abundance of suspects discourage her. While she labors to find temporary accommodations for Stumpy, Leo's gray Manx cat, she's also sniffing out as many clues as she can. She'd better hope the wrong person doesn't catch wind of her investigation though, or it may be up to her furry feline pals to save her from tragedy once more.

Kat Harper expects her biggest Thanksgiving challenge to be coming up with an edible vegan pumpkin pie, but that all changes when a woman is mugged outside her apartment building. Unfortunately, Sylvia Garcia isn't the only victim of this cruel act. Sylvia had only just finished food shopping on behalf of a local homeless shelter before she was attacked, and the thief made off with all her spoils. Now it's questionable whether the less fortunate residents of Cherry Hills will have much to be thankful for this holiday season.

Lucky for them, Kat's on the case. With a heaping scoop of amateur sleuthing, a pinch of determination, and a dollop of assistance from her two justice-seeking felines, Kat won't stop investigating until she's identified the guilty party. And, just maybe, she can help to put a family back together in the process.

Kat Harper's first day at her new job doesn't go as planned when a runaway cat leads her to a dead body outside of her office building. Things only get worse when Sadie Cramer's death is deemed a homicide, and Kat has to wonder what she's gotten herself into by accepting this position.

Much to Kat's—and her police detective boyfriend's—dismay, she soon encounters plenty of people with motive for murder. From an employee fired right before the Thanksgiving holiday, to a grown son ruthlessly cut out of an inheritance, it seems the late career counselor angered several people shortly before her passing. And now it's up to the office building's newly hired amateur sleuth to figure out exactly who is guilty . . . preferably without turning into a victim herself.

Cherry Hills resident Kat Harper finds herself embroiled in another murder investigation when a local artist is run down in the street. There's no question this was a deliberate act, but who was behind the wheel?

Between a money-hungry gallery owner, a brooding rival painter, and the victim's jealous sister, Kat's not sure who had more motive. And, unfortunately, nobody appears to have gotten a good look at the driver—except perhaps for an extremely territorial white cat named Clover. But Clover is too busy guarding his favorite chair to reveal "whodunit."

That means it's up to Kat and Kat alone to track down this latest killer. Will the amateur detective succeed, or will this be the case that finally stumps her?

January's Furry Friends Foster Families animal rescue fundraiser turns deadly when the guest of honor ends up murdered. Now it's up to amateur detective Kat Harper to figure out who killed popular local radio personality John Sykes.

As Kat soon discovers, this isn't going to be a straightforward case. Between an ambitious coworker desperate to advance his career, a bevy of lovestruck fans, and an oddly frosty wife, John Sykes could have been targeted by practically anyone in attendance that night. To complicate matters further, the more Kat learns about the victim, the more she realizes he may have had a dark side hidden beneath his charming public persona.

Fortunately, Kat has a secret weapon in her sleuthing arsenal. His name is Sundae, and finding a home for the tabby cat with fudge- and caramel-colored markings may be the only way Kat can still salvage something from this tragic event. It also doesn't hurt that introducing him to prospective pet parents is a wonderful way to interview everyone on her lengthy suspect list.

She just has to be careful not to let the innocent feline fall into the hands of a killer, or else this may end up being the one case Kat regrets taking on for the rest of her life.

Kat Harper's visit to Jessie's Diner ends abruptly when the man at the next table drops dead. She soon discovers the victim is none other than Aaron Moskowitz, a caustic food critic known for thrashing restaurants he doesn't like. And now, thanks to a severe nut allergy, Aaron has penned his last roast.

Nobody suspects foul play until a wannabe crime reporter and some disturbing evidence convinces them otherwise. And when a tenacious orange stray cat sneaks into Jessie's and locates Aaron's missing EpiPen in the kitchen, the eponymous restaurant owner quickly becomes the center of the police investigation.

Kat doesn't truly believe her friend is guilty, but what will it take to prove Jessie's innocence? Identifying the real killer would be a good start. But that won't be as easy as it seems, not when everyone who dealt with Aaron has nothing but bad things to say about him.

Regardless, that won't stop Kat from her quest to uncover the truth. The amateur sleuth had better tread carefully though. When the killer gets wind of her investigation, it isn't long before Kat finds herself on the fast track to joining Aaron at the morgue.

Kat Harper is in for a Valentine's Day surprise when her police detective boyfriend is spotted with another woman. Even more shocking, Kat soon discovers Andrew's mystery woman is her new neighbor, Sheila Smith.

Kat doesn't really believe Andrew would cheat on her, but that doesn't explain why he refuses to answer her questions about the clandestine encounter. Sheila doesn't seem inclined to talk either, not unless she's busy snubbing Kat's beloved cat Tom or criticizing the apartment building's security measures.

Yet, as much as Kat hates to admit it, Sheila may have a point. It isn't long before several neighborhood break-ins divert Kat's attention away from her personal problems. Now the amateur sleuth has her hands full working to find out who is wreaking havoc in Cherry Hills, Washington. She'd better tread carefully though, or she may soon yearn for the days when her love life was the only life on the line.

Kat Harper's morning workout takes a sinister turn when she discovers the lifeless body of Ellie Higgins in the gym pool. All evidence points to murder, and the amateur detective soon finds herself submerged in another homicide investigation.

With her exercise plans derailed, Kat heads to the victim's house to take Ellie's newly orphaned Maine Coon cat into protective custody. But she receives her second surprise of the day when she inadvertently interrupts a burglary in progress. Is the break-in related to Ellie's murder, or did an opportunistic thief merely decide to take advantage of the late homeowner's permanent absence? Kat's not sure, but she's determined to find out.

She had better be careful though. When the killer realizes Kat is getting close to uncovering the truth, the small-town sleuth's New Year's resolution to get into shape may turn into a death sentence. And, unfortunately for Kat, this is one time when her cats won't be around to save her.

Kat Harper doesn't anticipate being dragged into an unsolved cold case when a friend asks her to meet with a difficult student. Now the more Kat learns about Julie Conway, the more convinced she becomes that all of the sixteen-year-old's problems began with the shocking murder of her mother four years earlier.

It seems to Kat the best thing she can offer the lost teenager is closure by figuring out exactly what happened that fateful night. But how on earth can she expect to identify the killer after so many years have passed? Kat doesn't know, but she has no other option except to try, not when the aftershocks of Carolyn Conway's tragic death continue to ripple throughout the lives of everyone she left behind.

What Kat doesn't realize is this case is about to get personal. As she works to piece together the events of four years ago, the gumshoe detective might just end up coming face-to-face with someone from her own troubled past. And, with any luck, she'll live to tell the tale.

Cherry Hills Police Chief Kenny wants nothing more than to celebrate his 55th birthday with a thick, juicy steak. Alas, that dream is shattered when his friend and animal rescue maven Imogene Little organizes a vegan get-together in his honor. But the caterer's spread isn't the most appalling part of the evening. When Chief Kenny's brother-in-law Landon Tabernathy ends up murdered, the police chief's four bickering sisters are all pegged as prime suspects.

With Chief Kenny sitting out this investigation thanks to his personal ties to the case, it's up to amateur sleuth Kat Harper to find out "whodunit." And as much as she hates the possibility, it's looking quite likely one of Chief Kenny's sisters might, in fact, be guilty. The siblings share a complicated history—one that stars Landon at its turbulent center.

Unfortunately for Kat, she isn't the only one working to solve the case. This homicide may be the lucky break a beat cop with high career aspirations needs to prove he's worthy of a promotion. And if Kat doesn't identify the real killer in time, the detective wannabe might just succeed in his efforts to pin the small town's latest murder on its resident gumshoe.

Kat Harper's morning walk is cut short when a nearby house goes up in flames. The traumatic incident leaves the Jefferson family homeless and devastated. Worse yet, the fire appears to be the result of an arson attack, spurring everyone to question who would do such a thing.

The more Kat learns, the more it seems the Jeffersons made a dangerous enemy. Could it be the estranged relative who finally decided to exact revenge over an unfair inheritance? A determined thief looking to cover up their criminal tracks? Or was it someone else entirely?

While Kat attempts to identify the guilty party, her tortoiseshell cat Matty has her paws full comforting the two youngest Jeffersons. But as Kat digs deeper, she might be the one who needs Matty's solace. It doesn't take long before another possible culprit emerges. And when it turns out this new suspect has personal ties to someone Kat cares for, the gumshoe detective might soon wish she had skipped the amateur sleuthing just this once.

Kat Harper discovers murder and mayhem when she accompanies her boss Maura O'Malley to a local veterinary office. This time the victim is one of the vet techs, and somehow Kat finds herself involved in yet another homicide case.

It isn't long before the police peg the practice's beloved veterinarian as the suspected killer. But is Dr. Mark truly guilty? There's no chance, according to one vocal staff member. Then again, he was found holding the purported murder weapon. Or could he simply have been in the wrong place at the wrong time?

It will take some amateur sleuthing to find out what really happened. Luckily, Kat and her two feline sidekicks are up to the task. Kat had better hope the killer doesn't get wind of her investigation though, or she might soon be Dead and Very Murdered herself.
