But even with work at hand, there are problems: Someone is stealing show cats. And both the feline-friendly Theda and her friend Violet, who runs the local shelter, are outraged.

But when a murder hits close to home, the circle of suspects widens to include family, an extortionist, and more...." -- B&N from the publisher (April 2007).
