I highly recommend Cat House for its cozy feel, lifelike characters, cats, and original mystery! I loved this charming mystery and give it five huge stars! ~Christy's Cozy Corners This Halloween, the cats are hiding, and the monsters don't wear costumes. Young men from the Portland-Seattle area are going missing. It's just another sad headline to Lynley Cannon-until she starts her new cat sitting job for the enigmatic Darla. Meanwhile the neighborhood is preparing for the Hawthorne All-Hallows Holiday Fête. Lynley's mom Carol is running a craft booth, and her granddaughter Seleia will be acting in a play. All is going nicely when one of the kidnapped men shows up at the hall, sick and malnourished. He dies before he can give away his captor, casting a pall on the festive joy. Lynley begins to link the facts together, but her inquiries stir up trouble. An off-limits room in Darla's house, a suspicious phone message involving drugs, and the sudden appearance of a missing man's kitten arouse Lynley's suspicion, but how far can she go before the consequences of her cat-like curiosity turn deadly?
