Purr-suing a killer …
The only thing that could make the High Cliff Shelter for Cats even cozier is a reading room where kids can snuggle up with a furry feline and a book. But as Lara and Aunt Fran prepare for the reading nook’s official opening, the health inspector in their New Hampshire town, Evonda Fray, decrees that the shelter qualifies as a “cat café,” thanks to the free snacks it serves to visitors—and that it must be shut down.
When Evonda’s body is found in her car clutching a copy of the cease-and-desist order, suspicion naturally falls on Lara and Aunt Fran. But there’s a whole litter of potential culprits, including a tenant in one of Evonda’s buildings who’d been ordered to give up his rescue cat, a disgruntled daughter-in-law, and more. Now Lara—with some help from her aunt and her spirit cat, Blue—has to pin the tail on the right suspect.
I have to say this the Cat Ladies Mysteries series is one of my favorites out there today. Each installment just gets better and better. Ever time I think I have a new favorite from the series, the next book I read ends up knocking the last one out of the water.
Claws of Action is a fun fast-paced mystery
that kept me guessing until the end. This can be read as a standalone, but I truly
suggest you start from book one and go from there because that way you can
really truly appreciate how this series has grown by each installment. In this installment, you read about the same loveable characters with the addition of a couple of
more new characters, which I hope will have some cameos in future books.
I highly recommend this series to anyone who
loves cozy mysteries.
One day I'll read a cozy mystery.
