What to read after Blackmail in Cherry Hills?

Small towns hide the biggest secrets.

What should have been a night for celebration takes a criminal turn when a Cherry Hills town council vote doesn't go the way Kat Harper expected. It doesn't take long before the amateur detective and her sidekick Imogene uncover a sinister blackmail threat that forced one of the council members to withdraw her support of the animal breeder ban Kat and Imogene worked so hard to get passed.

Between a vocal pet store owner, a local breeder of Siberian cats, and one of Imogene's most hated enemies, Kat has plenty of suspects to investigate. But it might take a little help from some furry feline friends before the female sleuth can crack this particular case.

All of the Cozy Cat Caper Mystery books can be enjoyed as standalones but will be better appreciated as part of the series. The books are light, fun cozy mysteries featuring an animal-loving female amateur sleuth, lovable and not-so-lovable quirky characters, and a page-turning mystery that needs solving. None of the books include cliffhangers, bad language, or graphic scenes.

Fans of Lilian Jackson Braun (The Cat Who Series), Shirley Rousseau Murphy (Joe Grey Mystery Series), Liz Mugavero (Pawsitively Organic Mystery Series), Cate Conte (Cat Cafe Mysteries), Sofie Kelly (Magical Cats Mysteries), Sofie Ryan (Second Chance Cat Mysteries), Miranda James (Cat in the Stacks Mysteries), Kay Finch (Bad Luck Cat Mystery Series), and Ali Brandon (Black Cat Bookshop Mystery Series) are likely to enjoy this series as well.
