Synopsis taken from the back of the book. "In the first in this cat-filled cozy series, aspiring mystery author Sabrina Tate is about to discover that when it comes to solving murders, her new feline friend Hitchcock is a master of sleuthingâ¦
"Sabrina has never been the superstitious type. Still, when she moves to Lavender, Texas, to write her first novel and help her Aunt Rowe manage her vacation rental business, Sabrina can't avoid listening to the rumors that a local black cat is a jinxâespecially after the stray in question leads her directly to the scene of a murder."
I have a like/dislike thing with Sabrina. She comes across as annoying and runs around with no clue on how to interact with people in most of the book. However, she is no quitter in trying to solve what happened to her cousin Bobby Joe Flowers who was found dead in a river. Sabrina's Aunt Rowe becomes the prime suspect because of the huge argument Bobby and her had the day before. The cat, Hitchcock, is the star of the book and he is just being a cat. The story line is good and moves along but at times it is boring. I am still giving it 4 stars because it did keep me guessing and was not over the top graphic with the murder scene.
