Catnapped
An Animal Instinct Mystery
by Gabriella Herkert
Catnapped
is the cat's meow! A purr-fectly enjoyable, fun and delightful mystery
novel. Gabriella Herkert is a gifted and skillful author. Her writing
is fabulous, her character development sublime.
This is one
of, if not THE, funniest books I've ever read. It also contains
a well-developed, intriguing and multi-layered plot that keeps you
laughing and guessing to the bitter end. I cannot wait until September
2008 for Gabriella Herkert's next book, Doggone, to be released.
Sara Townley
is a legal investigator for the law firm of Abercroft, Hamilton,
and Sterns. The law firm representing the billionaire, Stuart Masterson.
Sara's current
case involves a missing heir by the name of Flash. Flash is ten
years old, weighs ten pounds, is approximately twelve inches tall
and is the sole beneficiary of a two-million-dollar trust left by
his owner, Millicent Millinfield, who had been personal assistant
to the billionaire Stuart Masterson until she met with an unfortunate
accident.
Jeff Randall
is the trustee in charge of Flash. His job is to physically care
for the feline. Jeff lives in the guesthouse at the Masterson's
estate free of charge, and not everyone is happy about that (mainly
Stuart's two worthless sons, Bud and Stewie).
Morris, Sara's
boss, is acting weird regarding this case and keeping the files
under lock and key in his office. Morris is adamant that Flash simply
wandered off, while Sara is certain he didn't leave of his own accord.
With millions of dollars missing, a billionaire no one can find,
a dead body, two convenient car accidents and a cat gone missing,
Sara risks her job by ignoring her boss's direct order to leave
it alone. She needs to find Flash to find out exactly what's going
on. Besides, Flash is counting on her. This cat's up to his collar
in something very dangerous.
With
the help of her best friend, Russ, and her recently resurfaced husband,
Connor, Sara delves into the hair balls aplenty surrounding this
case. This misplaced furball has been hanging around some pretty
unsavory types.
Highly
Recommended.
