Produktbeschreibung
The untold story behind Edgar Allan Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart." Philadelphia, 1842: Edgar Allan Poe's cat, Cattarina, mistakes a glass eye for a plaything and unwittingly pulls them into a crime even the constable can't solve - a madman is on the loose, prowling the cobblestone streets of Philadelphia in search of blue-eyed victims. When her beloved "Eddy" develops an obsession with the case, Cattarina takes matters into her own paws and begins an ambitious search for the Glass Eye Killer. But she soon learns this is no simple mouse hunt... From spooky Eastern State Penitentiary to the lush gardens of Fairmount Water Works, Cattarina stalks her prey and encounters dangerous characters, including a feral band of gutter cats. But as the mystery unravels, the more tangled she and Eddy become until even her "man of letters" becomes a suspect. Yet she cannot give up the chase. If she succeeds in catching the murderer, the missing pieces of Eddy's unfinished story will fall into place, and the Poe household will once again be happy. With their hilarious, whisker twisting plots, quirky characters, and quaint Victorian settings, the Cattarina Mysteries are a purrfect match for fans of cozy mysteries, women sleuths, and Edgar Allan Poe. If you like a little cat hair with your literature, give them a try!

Customers have praised her work time and again, calling it "unique and creative," "fresh and original," and "very well written." When she's not slaying adverbs and tightening plots, she's walking her rescue dogs, goofing around with her family, or going back to the grocery store for the hundredth time because she forgot milk.
