After establishing herself as an accidental sleuth, Penny Lane's luxury cat hotel is fully booked with pampered feline guests. When the exclusive Denial River Book Club asks her to board their cats during their annual writers' retreat, it seems like a routine booking ? until Hercule Purr-row's suspicious behavior around their felines suggests something sinister is afoot.
Her cat's instincts prove correct when a member of the book club is found dead on Guilford's rocky shore. The police call it an accidental drowning, but Penny discovers an eerie connection: each author in the club has written a mystery where the victim "accidentally" drowns. When a second body surfaces, Penny realizes someone is using their stories as a deadly blueprint.
With help from veterinarian Dr. Paul Harrison and Hercule Purr-row's uncanny ability to detect clues, Penny must identify the killer before another author's tale ends in tragedy. But in a group where everyone writes about murder, who's actually committed one?
"Death on Denial River" proves that in this charming Connecticut town, the most dangerous waters run deep ? and only a cat like Hercule Purr-row can help navigate them.
