Catnip Gray Cat Detective: The Tabitha Davenport Affair (eBook / ePub)

Produktinformationen zu „Catnip Gray Cat Detective: The Tabitha Davenport Affair (eBook / ePub)“

Catnip Gray is no ordinary house cat. At first glance, you might be fooled. He sleeps late, stays up all night tomcatting, eats birds, and seems to care less about his human's shenanigans. However, unlike most cats, Catnip has a taste for Slim-Fast and runs a detective agency. He also has a soft spot for beautiful female cats in distress.

In this first novella, we meet him and learn a lot about him and the Grays who own him. He doesn't spare him his astute observations about their lifestyle. However, he's more concerned with Tabitha Davenport, a gorgeous "dame" loaded with sardines, who seems only to want him to gather evidence against her cheating husband. More meets the eye in this twisting little puzzler as Catnip uncovers deceit and lies.

There's murder, mayhem, and treachery in the world of cats, mice, and birds.

So as I stood at the edge of Tuna Boulevard, I got my eyes out for a yellow Falcon. Been watching for it for a year--waiting for my chance. I had all of my parakeets lined up in a row. The Falcon
