Mew
is for Murder
By

Journalist
Theda Krakow finds herself immersed in a mystery of her own when she
decides to do a feature on the local cat lady in her neighborhood.
Before she can get her story done, the "cat lady" Lillian is found
dead on her kitchen floor. Her love for cats finds her with an addition
to her family from the "cat lady's" collection. Theda is still suffering
the recent loss of her own beloved cat, James and the recent breakup
with her boyfriend Rick. Theda isn't so sure she wants a new cat in
her life or her apartment. Theda's quest
brings her to local bars and coffee houses and the band scene set
in Cambridge Massachusetts. She meets several interesting characters
and isn't so sure the "cat lady" was murdered. But Lillian's friend,
Violet, is completely convinced it was murder. Before Violet gets
into too much trouble, Theda finds a way to help.
I found this an enjoyable
light-read. While cats are a steady theme here, it's not all about
the kitties. Join Theda and friends as they find out who might have
put the local "cat lady" out of business. Can Theda find a way to
save all the cats? Will she be able to discover the truth about
the death of the local "cat lady"?
