Book Synopsis
CATS, COTTON, AND. . .MURDER—
The worlds of Sarah Booth Delaney’s Zinnia, Mississippi and Trouble, the black cat detective, collide in this fast-paced tale of high stakes cotton research, abduction, and murder.

Trouble, the Sherlockian feline, falls in with Pluto, another cat with a yin for detective work, to find the missing Trudy Wells. But the cats aren’t alone. Tabitha Kingsley, posing as a psychic medium, has come to the Mississippi Delta to find her missing sister.

Standing in Tabitha’s way is the cynical—and compelling—Roger Long. Roger manages the vast Long Agricultural Products farm and business. Trudy was his newly hired receptionist—and possible lover–before she disappeared.

In a world of wealth and privilege, Tabitha must discover the truth of what her rebellious, sometimes law-breaking, sister was really up to. And she must trust Roger to help her.

Trouble and Pluto aid the bipeds in finding the answers—to Trudy’s vanishing act and also to the path to trust.

    Thanks so much for spotlighting my favorite black cat, Trouble. Some of you may remember the Familiar romantic mystery series published by Harlequin Intrigue back in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Caroline Burnes was the author–and she is me! Trouble is the son of Familiar, so he’s had great training as a feline detective, and he also has watched way too much Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock Holmes. Even though Trouble is from Wetumpka, Alabama, he thinks with a bit of a British accent. Like his dad, he’s always smarter than the bipeds, in both mystery and romance. Each book is a standalone and there are multiple authors in this series.
