Description
'A terrific read - murder, arson and a cat who is so much more than he seems!' - J. M. Hall, author of A Spoonful of Murder
The Cat Who Solved Three Murders by L T Shearer is a charming cosy crime read for fans of Richard Osman and S. J. Bennett.
Retired police detective Lulu Lewis's life changed forever when she met a street cat named Conrad. There's something very special about Conrad, but it's a secret she has to keep to herself.
When Lulu takes her narrowboat to Oxford, she is planning nothing more stressful than attending a friend's birthday party. And drinking a few glasses of Chardonnay.
But a brutal murder and a daring art theft mean her plans are shattered - instead, she and Conrad find themselves on the trail of a killer...
A killer who may well strike again.
'A charming, off-beat story with some great characters and wonderful locations' - S. J. Bennett on The Cat Who Caught a Killer
