Follow this Cat Under Fire

This week’s read is Cat Under Fire, the second book in Shirley Rousseau Murphy’s Joe Grey Mystery series. I’ve read a couple of other books in the series. They’re a lot of fun. Murphy’s cats do break a few physiological rules as well as being anthropomorphic speaking and thinking cats. They see in colour. They sweat. And, of course, they solve murders. Most of the humans are not too stupid, but they don’t seem to have the same drive to track down the killers as Joe and Dulcie.

There’s a new witch in town.

And a powerful one at that. Reg doesn’t know what Verity is doing in Black Sands, but she is getting too close to Corvin Hunter for her safety.

Reg was just trying to help. To be a good neighbor.

Thrice Spared

If Reg was going to kill Corvin, she would have done so before now.

As much as she might dislike the warlock who has been a thorn in her side ever since moving to Black Sands, she has never tried to kill him.

Well, except maybe that one time.

Have you heard of Anteater of Death?

/ 2 minutes of reading / 1 Comment

This week’s teaser comes from The Anteater of Death by Betty Webb. A very nicely-done cozy. I would definitely read more in the series. A cozy mystery with a zoo full of animals behaving like animals and humans behaving like savages. Plenty of suspects, lots of twists and turns, and pleasant diversions into zoo life, boats, and the protagonist’s relationships with her family, coworkers, friends, and new love interest.

Read this yarn – Dead Men Don’t Crochet

/ 2 minutes of reading / Leave a Comment

I am currently reading Betty Hechtman’s Dead Men Don’t Crochet, a well-woven cozy mystery with some unexpected twists and tangles… okay, I’ll lay off the puns now! Dead Men Don’t Crochet has all of the expected tropes — a protagonist who works at the library and takes part in a crocheting club, solving murders on the side. Her boyfriend is a cop, of course, and while he keeps telling her not to interfere with the investigation, I assume he will give her a hand the moment she is in trouble. Good characters and a nice tone so far. Curl up by the fire for this cozy read.
