Description
A missing heiress. A burning house. A skeleton that won’t stay buried.
Cat Caliban never expected her golden years to be quite so eventful. She races into a burning house to rescue a litter of kittens, only to stumble across a charred human skull.
But who is the victim? And why were they hidden in the attic of an abandoned house?
As if singed hair and a gashed cheek weren’t enough, Cat finds herself tangled in a decades-old mystery involving a vanished heiress and a skeleton with a story to tell.
Cat must use up every one of her nine lives if she is to sniff out a killer before someone else meets a fiery end.
Perfect for fans of Steve Higgs, Dorothy Cannell, Lucy Connelly, Ellie Alexander and Richard Osman.
Please note this is a revised edition of Nine Lives.
—“A tumultuous, often madcap, adventure. A worthy addition to this fun series with Cat as her usual gritty, brash and wonderfully unapologetic self!”
—Ruth Giles, NetGalley
—“The characters are engaging as well as interesting. The sleuthing takes due diligence to an extreme and the plot twists/red herrings are not only inventive, but truly diabolical! I had my nose stuck to the (virtual) page from start to finish!”
—Jan Tangen, Goodreads
—“This is a great read for anyone who enjoys a witty, quick mystery.”
Margaret F. Baker, Amazon
