Animal lovers will absolutely adore Ann Granger's captivating novel! It's a true treat that will leave you spellbound. The story revolves around cats, dogs, a thrilling murder mystery, and a relatable heroine named Clarice Beech.
Driving home from a ceramics evening class, Clarice reflects on the absence of one of her students, Colin Compton-Smythe. Later, Emily, Colin's daughter, telephones to inform her that her father has passed away during routine surgery.
Distraught, Emily opens up to Clarice about her father's wretched childhood and the day when Colin, at the age of five, returned home to discover his mother, Avril, gone. Colin never believed she would have left without him and had been tirelessly searching for answers about Avril's disappearance all those years ago.
Clarice, moved by Emily's story, readily agrees to accompany her to Colin's funeral. As they arrive at the stunning Victorian Gothic manor house, with Bellatrix, the majestic stone Siamese cat reposing at its entrance, Clarice is drawn into the tumultuous world of the Compton-Smythe family.
Colin's father, Ralph, is an argumentative man, while his partner, Tessa, is equally combative. Their daughter, Dawn, is being stalked by an ex-lover, and the most unsettling aspect is Ernestine, Ralph's emotionally unpredictable sister. Additionally, there is Johnson, Ralph's menacing manservant.
As Clarice delves deeper into the mystery, she realizes that the closer she gets to the truth, the greater her danger becomes. Someone is determined to keep the mystery of Avril's disappearance unresolved, and they will stop at nothing to achieve their goal.
With each turn of the page, Ann Granger keeps the reader on the edge of their seat, guessing and speculating until the very end. This novel is a masterpiece of suspense and intrigue, and it's sure to leave you wanting more. Don't miss out on this incredible journey of love, loss, and mystery!
