Patricia Fry - Klepto Cat 04 - Undercover Cat

by Patricia Fry

  In this story, one of the rescued horses goes into labor and there’s a night of high drama at the ole corral as veterinarians Savannah and Michael work to save the foal. This experience renews Savannah’s deep interest in horses and riding, which ultimately serves to help her bond with a very important surprise character who finds his way into her life and Michael’s just as they prepare to say their wedding vows.

  While Rags is the animal star, he isn’t the only animal featured in this story. Layla is back in all of her tangerine feline beauty. And Rags makes friends with Buffy, a perky almost Himalayan cat and the inseparable duo, Walter, an all black cat and his sidekick, Lexie, a charming Afghan-mix dog. Savannah’s new ride, Peaches, also debuts in this story. An incident with this mare adds another dimension to Savannah’s and Michael’s relationship. Can he hold her with open arms?

  Some say this is a love story with a mystery in the background. And it’s a story of family and friendship as newlyweds Margaret and Max continue to be a meaningful part of Savannah’s and Michael’s world.

  Sleight of Paw

  Michael Ivey, the local veterinarian (Savannah’s new husband), is violently attacked by an enraged client and then later accused of this man’s murder. The clues quickly stack up against Michael.

  Detective Craig Sledge is working this case. And he has also become embedded in the family of Savannah’s friend and local waitress, Iris. He’s dating Iris and helping with her son, Damon’s, rehabilitation in prison.

  Coinciding with this mystery is the discovery that the old house, which Savannah and Michael purchased from her Aunt Margaret, is cursed. Is this why the couple has not been blessed with a child?

  Savannah’s sister Brianna comes for a visit. She teams up with the Ivey’s vet tech, Bud, to try to break the gypsy spell and they fall hard for each other.

  As in the other two stories, Rags (the cat) is involved in solving the crime of many twists and turns.

  The Cat Colony Caper

  Savannah Ivey, a veterinarian out on maternity leave; her aunt Margaret, the founder of the Hammond Cat Alliance; and Colbi Stanton, a reporter for the local newspaper take on a cat colony at an old, abandoned building. Odd activity around the place makes them wonder if it actually is vacant; some believe it’s occupied by something other-worldly. When a stranger comes to town and suggests the Alliance open the old building to a fund-raiser, everyone gets involved, including Rags, Savannah’s kleptomaniac cat. He finds something that day that stirs a lot of people—both law-abiding and crooks—into action. Are the feral cats and their caretakers in serious danger? What (or who) lurks inside the old building? What secrets does it hide? And who has the key that unlocks the mystery?
