Coffee, cupcakes, and kitty day care โ just a normal day for Lauren, Annie, and Zoe โ when they're not busy catching a killer!
Lauren temporarily hires a college student to help out in the cat cafรฉ in the small town of Gold Leaf Valley, Northern California, while her cousin Zoe enjoys a belated honeymoon in beautiful Puerto Rico.
But Darrell isn't working out.
Not at all.
When Darrell doesn't turn up for his last shift, Lauren, Annie (her Norwegian Forest Cat), and her police husband Mitch visit his apartment. And find him dead.
When Zoe returns home the next day, she's keen to investigate โ as well as show off a magic handcuff trick, which inevitably fails.
Not only was Darrell a lazy employee, he also stole money from the register โ and loved to entertain his friends for free at the cafรฉ.
With his three pals as suspects, as well as his college professor, the trio aren't sure who to interview first!
Meanwhile, Zoe and Annie come up with a moneymaking scheme โ kitty day care โ while Lauren keeps an eye on the cafรฉ and comes up with a new cupcake creation.
But when they finally work out who the killer is, can they slap on the handcuffs in time? Or will they have enjoyed their last strawberry delight cupcake?
This is a humorous, clean, cat cozy mystery with female amateur sleuths, cupcake talk โ and Annie, the Norwegian Forest Cat!
