- Synopsis
- [From the Back Cover] "Take out order For Death Alice Nestleton, after years of off-, off-off-, and far-beyond-Broadway theater, sees stardom beckoning at last. Her agent has sent her to a trendy Tribeca Chinese eatery to land a movie part with an almost-major film producer. Instead, Alice is cat-apulted into crime once more. Before she can even order, she spots a fabulous red tabby mysteriously perched amid the glass decor of this New York City in-spot ... and three young thugs pulling out weapons to spray the restaurant with bullets. After the shooting, a pretty waitress is dead, and Alice--ever hopeful actress, accomplished cat-sitter, and occasional consultant to the NYPD--is dead certain the tabby is missing. Teamed up with a handsome, Mandarin-speaking city cop, she's up to her fortune cookie in trouble, and wondering if Confucius says: "Lady who seeks the cat connection to this murder may lose nine lives and one heart." Millions of citizens live in New York City. A surprisingly large number of them come unforgettably to life as Alice Nestleton, forty-something-year-old Actress and cat sitter investigates a wide variety of crimes in the Alice Nestleton Mysteries available from Bookshare including #1 A Cat in the Manger, #2 A Cat of a Different Color, # 3 A Cat in Wolf's Clothing, #4 A Cat by Any Other Name, #5. A Cat in the Wings, #6 A Cat With a Fiddle, # 8 A Cat With No Regrets, #9 A Cat on the Cutting Edge, #10, A Cat in Fine Style, #12 A Cat Under the Mistletoe, #15 A Cat on Jingle Bell Rock, #17 A Cat of One's Own, and #21 A Cat on the Bus, with the rest of the books in the series coming soon. The action in these relatively short novels gets underway on page one. The reader isn't given a moment to lose interest. Being an actress, Alice notices details about places and people that bring the reader into the picture. Being a cat lover, Alice misses no opportunity to lavishly describe her own two cats and cats she meets along her way, as well as sprinkling in catnips of feline trivia cat-loving and curious readers will enjoy.
