This small-town criminal isn't playing around.
Travel back to 1999, to a point in Cherry Hills history when Imogene Little makes a disturbing discovery upon opening her front door. Someone placed a doll on her doorstep with a knife stabbed through its torso.
Imogene doesn't know who left her the ominous gift, but she has a sneaking suspicion it was meant as a threat. And if she's right, she'd be wise to find out who has it in for her sooner rather than later.
This short story is meant to be a brief peek into the world of Cherry Hills, Washington, and the Cozy Cat Caper Mystery series.
