The Cat Sitter's Cradle

It’s another tail of murder and mayhem for Florida’s premiere pet sitter in

tHE cAT sITTER'S cRADLE

Dixie Hemingway isn’t related to the writer of the same surname, though she’s no less famous in Siesta Key. Everybody knows that when it comes to pet care, she holds the strings…and lately she has more work than she can handle. Case in point: Not only is Dixie looking after a schnauzer with a nose for trouble—a recent dog walk turned up a baby in a bramble patch!—but she’s also just accepted a job minding multi-millionaire oilman Roy Harwick’s Siamese cat and his wife’s collection of rare tropical fish. And now, you guessed it, a dead body has turned up in the unlikeliest of places. Can Dixie make her way out of this mess and manage to restore paw and order…or will she end up in the doghouse?

The eighth in this popular cozy series, John Clement and Blaize Clement's The Cat Sitter's Cradle will keep both newcomers and loyal Dixie fans perched on the edge of their seats.

“For anyone who loves mysteries, animals, or just plain great writing.”

—Laurien Berenson, author of Doggie Day Care Murder
