Whiteout Wipeout

Blizzards and bodies . . . The Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday weekend starts off poorly for Imogene Little when a blizzard whips through her small town of Cherry Hills, Washington. But the weather soon becomes the least of the animal rescue maven's worries. A lost cat has blown in along with the storm—and kitty doesn't waste any time digging up a dead body beneath the fresh snowfall. When homicide is deemed the manner of death, it's up to Imogene to find out who killed Alex Stratmore. Can the amateur sleuth succeed in her efforts to put a murderer behind bars? Maybe, but not without a helping paw from her newest four-legged rescue. This seasonal short story is meant to be a shorter peek into the world of Cherry Hills, Washington, and the Cozy Cat Caper Mystery series. It was previously published as part of the Festive Mayhem 3 anthology.
