Description

A gorgeous Norwegian Forest Cat, a cat café, a food critic, and … murder!

The small town of Gold Leaf Valley is aflutter with a food critic's arrival. His online column has made him famous in this part of Northern California, but not everyone is pleased he's in town.

When café owners Lauren Crenshaw and Annie, her silver-gray tabby, stumble across his body, what should they do? Investigate the crime themselves? Or … leave it to the police?

Is Lauren under suspicion for delivering pastries to the dead man's motel room? Or did his intern bump him off in order to gain a promotion?

Lauren's cousin Zoe is keen to help investigate the crime. But are there too many red herrings in this case to uncover the truth?

Zoe is also busy turning knitting club into knitting/crochet club and teasing Lauren about her budding romance with the attractive Detective Mitch Denman.

Can the trio uncover the truth about the food critic's death – before the killer strikes again?

This is a fun, clean, cat cafe cozy mystery with female amateur sleuths – and a beautiful Norwegian Forest Cat!

    The death of a well known restaurant critic had the small town gossiping about who the murderer could possibly be. Lauren and Zoe kept considering clues, but nothing seemed to fit. I definitely think you should read this book

    Annie, the silver-gray tabbyNorwegian Forest Cat seats people in the Cat Café run by the Crenshaw cousins, Laurenand Zoe. The small town of Gold Leaf Valley is a flutter with the arrival of a famous food critic from the city of Sacramento. When he and his protégé arrive at the cafe, the café’s baker is not there plus all his bake goods have sold out. They said they would return the next morning. When they do not show up the next day, Lauren decides to take some pastries to the hotel. She and Anne walk over to where the food critic is staying. They find him dead!!! Well fleshed out characters that are colorful, interesting, some quirky and very entertaining. A very well plotted adventure with descriptions that make the reader part of the story. I volunteered to read Meow Means Murder. Thanks to the author for the opportunity. My opinion is my own.
