A locked room. A dead man. The cat is the only witness, and he isn't talking Locked-room murders are being committed in sleepy little Long Beach, Washington. As to the killer, Sheriff Matt Boulder has no idea who or why. The sheriff needs help. He calls his friend, animal cop Denny Paris, and gets a surprise bonus: Lynley Cannon, amateur sleuth. This isn't how the sixty-something cat shelter volunteer envisioned her beach vacation, but when Denny asks her to join him in the search, how can she refuse? While the officers investigate one line of inquiry, Lynley takes a different approach. Her only clues, a cat found at the murder scene and a rich man's missing wife, lead her thread by thread to a scheme more insidious than fiction. But who will she tell when she turns out to be the one in the locked room?

Lynley finds a new meaning of Christmas when a Wiccan's familiar is catnapped, and Lynley becomes her only hope. Lynley Cannon is dreading the Holidays. The sixty-something cat shelter volunteer would rather hang out with cats than brave her daughter's soulless Christmas gala, so when a witch's beloved kitty is catnapped, Lynley grabs the excuse to skip out on her social obligations. Though Lynley knows little about the white witchcraft, Wicca, she does know cats and can't decline a plea for help when one goes missing. Then the witch disappears as well. Lynley, compelled by her cat-like curiosity, sets out to search for the pair, but the task is more difficult than she'd thought. A freak snow storm and a crazed captor take things in a dangerous direction. As Lynley endures the cold dark of confinement, the Christmas spirit brings a strength she never knew she possessed.

When a friend suffers a bizarre accident on the set of a television pilot, Lynley takes over as cat handler, only to find out the show is "hexed" and murder is waiting in the wings.

Lynley Cannon is the crazy cat lady, but she's not quite crazy yet, though a bizarre connection to a bumbled heist and a double homicide has got her wondering. Retiree Lynley Cannon adores her old Portland home with her clowder of rescue cats, but when elderly Fluffs drags in a beach agate that turns out to be a priceless chocolate diamond, things change fast. How the stolen stone, one of a pair called the Cats' Eyes, ended up a cat toy, even the robbers cannot guess. Robbery escalates to kidnapping and murder. With the police baffled, Lynley is determined to catch the crooks herself. Friends, family, and a hunky animal cop step up to help, but the killer, convinced Lynley has the diamonds, is prepared to go to any lengths to get them back. Will Lynley live to clean the litter box another day?
