Thereās no such thing as a typical day at Helping Paws Animal Shelter, and this wasnāt the first time Iāve had a soggy box waiting for me on the doorstep with a disgruntled cat inside.
However, this was the first time the cat talked to me.
What did the barista put in my coffee?
Persephone insists sheās been catnapped, and sheās witnessed an art heist. Thereās a huge reward for the safe return of the painting, and that money could go a long way to helping all our animals find their forever homes.
Now I have to convince the gallery owner and her associatesāincluding the suspicious but adorable Henry the Hottieāthat I can find the priceless painting.
I donāt know a thing about art, but here I am, at an exhibit opening, wearing a dress called Lucky and co-conspiring with a talking cat. Typical days? Theyāre a thing of the past, especially if Persephone and I can crack the case and catch the thief.
