Animal lovers will delight in Ann Granger's captivating novel, A Real Treat. This delightful story revolves around cats, dogs, murder, and a relatable heroine named Barbara Nadel. The debut promises to build up into a popular series, as noted by the Daily Mail. Clarice Beech, a devoted animal rescuer, shares her passion for contemporary ceramics with the charming Lady Vita Fayrepoynt. However, their lives take an unexpected turn when Vita's adopted three-legged ginger cat, Walter, disappears from Weatherby Hall. Clarice is called in to find him, but her search leads to a hospital visit and an encounter with Rose Miller, a former resident of the Old Vicarage in the morgue. What initially appears to be a natural death soon reveals itself as a murderous plot orchestrated by someone close to the Fayrepoynt family.

Putting their differences aside, Clarice and Rick are drawn together to unravel the murder that has shaken the rural Lincolnshire community. As Clarice delves into Rose's past, she becomes entangled in a shady world of blackmail, scams, and violence. The secrets of Weatherby Hall and the Fayrepoynt family threaten to spill out, testing Clarice's friendships and putting her own life at risk.

This debut mystery set in the Lincolnshire Wolds offers a delightful blend of sleuthing and animal rescue. It is the perfect classic crime mystery for fans of Ann Granger, M. C. Beaton, and Caroline Graham's Midsomer Murders. With its captivating characters, intricate plot, and picturesque setting, A Real Treat is a must-read for anyone who enjoys a good mystery with a touch of compassion and adventure.
