The Girl with the Kitten Tattoo is the fifth installment in the A Cat Lady Mystery series set in Whisker Jog, New Hampshire and featuring Lara Caphart and her Aunt Fran, owners of the High Cliff Shelter for Cats. Lara's best friend Sherry Bowker is set to marry her fiance David Gregson on Valentine's Day and Lara is tasked with being Sherry's Maid of Honor. Lara has her hands full trying to keep Sherry calm and keeping the peace between Sherry and her future mother in law who is not at all happy with the choice of wedding venue.

Things are going well between Lara and her boyfriend, Gideon Halley and she's hoping that Gideon is going to propose soon. That is until a strange woman arrives on her doorstep looking for Gideon. It turns out the woman, Megan Haskell, is Gideon's ex-girlfriend and she's being accused of murdering her boss. Lara is quickly consumed by jealousy and doesn't want anything to do with the woman, but when her spirit ragdoll cat Blue appears, Lara knows that she needs to help Megan clear her name.

A delightful addition to the series, readers will be once again drawn into the workings of a cat rescue and the adventures of Lara and her friends. Plenty of twists and turns will keep you guessing the killer's identity until the final reveal and a surprising note in a fortune cookie will leave you waiting for the next visit to Whisker Jog.
