When bookmobile librarian Minnie Hamilton helps save a man's life, she has no idea he's the famous artist known as Cade, or that she'll become friends with him and his wife. Or that she'll be the first one they call when Cade is arrested for murder.

Minnie can't believe this kindly man, weakened by a stroke, could have brutally murdered a young woman. Using her research skills and her bookmobile connections -- and with a little guidance from her cat Eddie - Minnie starts piecing together what really happened.

In TAILING A TABBY, author Laurie Cass has given us a solid whodunit in a small town populated by generally kind but quirky characters. Minnie has a lot more to do than solve the mystery - her boss wants her to get rid of a patron he thinks is wasting everyone's time, her friend wants to get her restaurant on a trendy cooking show, and her grandmother wants her help playing matchmaker to her summer boarders. And she's trying really hard to go on a date with her busy E.R. doctor boyfriend.

TAILING A TABBY is a fun, engaging, and suspenseful. It's also a perfect cozy mystery for cat lovers. Eddie doesn't talk, communicate psychically or have scenes that take us inside his mind, but he still manages to get his point across to Minnie when it's important. This is the second book in the Bookmobile Cat Mystery series.

Book Summary

In the bookmobile, librarian Minnie Hamilton and her rescue cat, Eddie, roll out great summer reads to folks all over the lake town of Chilson, Michigan. And when real-life drama turns deadly, Minnie makes sure justice is never overdue.

The bookmobile is making its usual rounds when Minnie and Eddie are flagged down by a woman in distress. The woman’s husband, a famous artist, needs emergency medical care. After getting him into the bookmobile, Minnie races the man to the hospital in time…but his bad luck has only just begun.

After disappearing from the hospital, the artist is discovered slumped over the body of a murdered woman. Minnie knows that her new friend didn’t commit the crime, but the evidence paints an unflattering picture. Now this librarian and her furry friend have to put the investigation in high gear and catch the real killer before someone else checks out.
