Whiskers and Lies
Author: Sofie Kelly
Autumn is in the air and Mayville Heights residents are ready for a fun and spooky good time. Halloween decoration and party planning by the local library staff is interrupted by a rather public argument in the library. The family drama stemming from a custody battle then escalates when one party is found dead at the rocky bottom of steep embankment. Librarian Kathleen Paulson and her cats Owen and Hercules are once again on the trail of a killer.
This story kept my attention from start to finish. The ending was rather darker than I expected - but perfect! I had to stop reading for a few minutes and let the who/why/how sink in before I could read the last few pages. Intense!
Owen and Hercules are fabulous as usual. I love how they join their sleuthing skills with Kathleen's. There was some interesting character development in this book as well. Can't wait to read the next book!
I can't believe I'm down to just two more books to read in this series! I have heard that book 16 is the final book in this series, but I haven't been able to verify that for sure. I will enjoy the next two books and savor them like they are the last....and will just be pleasantly surprised if there are more.
I already have the next book -- Paws to Remember -- on my desk ready to go.
Great cozy series! I have enjoyed every book!
