Purrfectly Poisoned: A Ginger Whisk Mystery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798248552399)

A dead man. A poisoned napkin. And a cat who won't stop sniffing.

When Gordon Hadley collapses at a charity luncheon in the village café she manages, Elsie Hart expects shock, grief, and a thorough police investigation. What she doesn't expect is her ginger tabby, Marmalade, planting himself on the dead man's napkin and refusing to move.

As Detective Sergeant Liam Beckett's investigation stalls amid false leads and village gossip, Elsie finds herself drawn into a web of secrets she never knew Heathwell was hiding. Gordon wasn't just a beloved community figure, he was a man who used money as a weapon, trapping his neighbours in a system of coercion that stretched back years.

With her café's reputation in ruins and the village turning against her, Elsie must follow Marmalade's extraordinary nose through a tangle of contaminated coats, suspicious briefcases, and missing napkins to uncover the truth. Because someone in Heathwell is a killer, and they'll do anything to make sure the evidence disappears.

PURRFECTLY POISONED is a cozy mystery featuring an amateur sleuth with a keen eye, a cat with a keener nose, and enough scones to sustain even the most harrowing investigation.

Perfect for fans of the Cat Who series, The Thursday Murder Club, and anyone who believes that the best detectives have four legs and a tail.
