Claws for Alarm
Author: T.C. LoTempio
I love the old Thin Man movies starring William Powell and Myrna Loy as Nick and Nora Charles. And I'm loving this cozy mystery series featuring Nora Charles and her kitty sidekick, Nick.
Claws for Alarm is the second book in this series. When Nora's sister Lacey is arrested for supposedly murdering an art professor, Nora finds herself doing some amateur sleuthing again. With the help of Nick, of course. Turns out there is a lot more going on than a bad grade in an art class. Once again, Nora finds herself in real danger. Luckily, she can rely on her trusty furry sidekick to help out!
This series is so much fun to read! Nora is an intelligent, capable main character. And there's a lot more to Nick than fuzzy cuteness. I like the background theme of a sandwich shop with menu items named after celebrities. The side characters are interesting and entertaining. There are plenty of suspects and the mystery progresses at a nice pace. Plenty of surprises. I had the murderer figured out, but didn't have all the pieces to the puzzle until the very end.
Loved it! Can't wait to read the next book in this series! The cover art is always awesome, and the plots are entertaining.
