BY SOFIE KELLY
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Kathleen Paulson is snowed under running her library and caring for her extraordinary felines, Owen and Hercules. But when a fund-raiser turns deadly, she’ll have to add sleuthing to her already full schedule….
Winter in Mayville Heights is busy and not just because of the holidays. Kathleen is hard at work organizing a benefit to raise money for the library’s popular Reading Buddies program. She has her hands full hosting the event. And when a guest at the gala drops dead, her magical cats, Owen and Hercules, will have their paws full helping her solve a murder.
The victim is the ex of town rascal Burtis Chapman, but she hasn’t lived in the area in years. And though everybody is denying knowledge of why she was back in town, as Kathleen and her detective boyfriend, Marcus, begin nosing around, they discover more people are connected to the deceased than claimed to be. Now Marcus, Kathleen, and her uncanny cats have to unravel this midwinter tale before the case gets cold.

This looks like a lot of fun. I was drawn to the title and cover art I have to say, but when I saw the author name I realized we have another of her books on our shelves. I love the idea of the magical cats. Thanks for doing the giveaway.

On her website under Extras, I noticed that she listed the 108 Wu style of Tai Chi Chuan movements. I didn't know there were so many!

I like that the main character and her cats have to unravel the mystery. Thanks for the giveaway.

The cover is so cool. It reminds me of a Christmas book. I want to see how cats help solve a mystery. My cats (my son's and his wife's cats) don't do anything.

I am always in awe of someone who does Tai Chi. I couldn't move that slowly. And to learn 108 different movements, too.
