Trixie Dolan & Evangeline Sinclair Mystery

Aging actress Dame Cecile Savoy is on the way to a Brighton taxidermist's shop, accompanied by her friends Trixie and Evangeline-and her recently departed Pekingese. But when they arrive, they discover a dead body, a spreading fire, and a helpless Japanese bobtail cat in a cage. After rescuing the endangered kitty, aka Cho-Cho-San, Trixie and Evangeline now have another heroic task to attempt: finding out who's responsible, and what sort of person would bring a live cat to a place like that. The Cat Who Wasn't a Dog is the 6th book in the Trixie Dolan & Evangeline Sinclair Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.

Trixie and Evangeline's shared kitchen is unusually crowded as Trixie's daughter, Martha, tests recipes for her upcoming cookbook, with help from her editor. But as they rush to meet their deadline, a few more people show up unexpectedly . . . including the husband of the cookbook's original author, now mysteriously deceased, who Martha replaced. When one of these unwanted guests turns up dead, the truth will have to come out eventually-and Trixie and Evangeline are on the case, along with Cho-Cho-San, their beloved Japanese bobtail. No Cooperation from the Cat is the 7th book in the Trixie Dolan & Evangeline Sinclair Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
