Purrfect Heat - Paperback

Murder is on the menu... and the kitchen is heating up!

Hampton Cove's tranquility is shattered when celebrity chef Niklaus Skad-infamous for his fiery temper and hit show Kitchen Disasters-is found cooked to perfection in his own oven. With a long list of enemies and more suspects than a bad buffet, it's up to reporter Odelia Poole and Detective Chase Kingsley to turn up the heat on the investigation.

Meanwhile, Max, Odelia's blorange tabby, has his own crisis: a new stray named Diego has joined the household, ruffling fur and wreaking havoc. Worse, Diego has his sights set on Harriet, stirring up a cat love triangle that has Brutus in a funk and Dooley convinced he's dying from heartbreak.

Between tracking down a killer, dodging kitchen chaos, and refereeing a feline feud, Max has his paws full. But with tempers rising-and Gran's mysterious new crush adding even more spice-can he sniff out the culprit before someone else gets burned?

Find out in Purrfect Heat, the next laugh-out-loud installment in The Mysteries of Max-a delightful cozy mystery series purrfect for fans of feisty felines, quirky humor, and twisty whodunits!
