Someone may have committed the purr-fect crime.

Caro Lamont, Laguna Beach’s most sought after pet therapist, is back with more coddled cats and pampered pooches. Unfortunately, her human neighbor, Kitty Bardot, has apparently used up her nine lives and Caro’s nose for trouble lands her in the middle of a murder investigation. Will Caro claw her way out of this one?

We love writing but we also love getting out on the road and talking to readers. Over the next couple of months, we’ll be at various events from conferences to bookstores and other author affairs.  Please check out our schedule and if you live near, or you’re going to be near a spot where we’re making an appearance, stop by and say hello!

Here’s the line-up so far:

April 6 – Dog Eared Books, Independence, MO

This lovely bookstore with their own resident mascots, (felines – Stuart Woods, Charlotte Bronte, & Harlee-Quinn) has remodeled and is celebrating with a grand reopening. We’ll be joining some other authors for what promises to be a fun time!

April 13 – Ankeny Author’s Fair, Ankeny, IA

The event is from 9:00 AM to noon and is hosted by the Kirkendall Public Library and will be held at the Pinnacle Club at 4100 NE Otter Creek Drive in Ankeny.

April 27 – Mystery Bookstore, Omaha, NE

We’ll be at The Mystery Bookstore/A Stitch in Crime at 5:00 PM for a book talk and then look forward to dinner afterward with friends and fans.

May 3 – Malice Domestic, Bethesda, MD

One of our favorite mystery cons because it’s all about cozy mysteries! This year we’ll be part of Malice’s Author-Go-Round and we’re partnering with the delightful Catriona McPherson! Then we’ll be on a great panel, Too Close for Comfort, talking about collaboration with Donald & Renee Bain (the writers of Murder She Wrote) and Mary Jane Maffini who writes with her daughter as Victoria Abbott. The panel is scheduled for Saturday at 9:00 AM.

We’ll also be hosting a table at the Agatha Awards banquet, so if you’re planning to attend, please consider dinner with us!

May 6 – Oakmont, PA Festival of Mystery

This wonderful festival is sponsored by Mystery Lovers Bookshop and is an absolute delight for mystery readers. Last year was our first time and it’s an amazing event. So if you live in the area or are looking for a road trip to a fun mystery reader destination, this is one you should look into!

In June, we’re back in the Midwest with Chicago appearances at Printer’s Row Book Festival and the American Library Association conference. You’ll find us at the Sisters in Crime and Mystery Writers of America booths. More details to come as we know them…
