Publisher's summary

When someone from her past comes to town to cause trouble, Kari Stuart and her sassy kitten Queenie will have to work hard to protect the Serenity Sanctuary in this new Catskills Pet Rescue Mystery.

Kari Stuart is finally starting to relax into her role as the new owner of the Serenity Sanctuary and is looking forward to the various fun autumn activities in the beautiful Catskills town of Lakeview, like the annual Oktoberfest celebration. It’s time for friends and quality bonding with handsome vet Angus McCoy. Until the unexpected arrival of her unpleasant ex-husband, Charlie Smith.

He comes bearing a shocking revelation—the paperwork on their divorce never went through, and they are still married. Worse yet, he thinks this entitles him to half of her lottery winnings—although he'll happily take partial ownership of the sanctuary instead. Kari isn’t sure if he’s telling the truth, or if it’s just another one of Charlie’s lies.

But things go from bad to worse when an unexpected death makes Kari the main suspect in a murder investigation. Will she and Queenie be able to find the real killer and keep the home they’ve built at the sanctuary safe, or is their string of luck finally tapped out?

Loved the series!

I don't normally leave reviews but I loved this series so much that I felt compelled. it was sweet, entertaining, and thoroughly enjoyable. My husband and I ran a cat rescue for ten years and the author's descriptions are very accurate.

I loved all the characters, including the pets. She did a great job of tying up loose ends also. This is more "light" mystery but such a fun read!

Animal Rescue Cozy Mystery

In this third book of the Catskills Pet Rescue series, Kari's long lost ex-husband shows up in town. After all, what better than a lottery win to attract long lost relatives? However, things go from bad to worse when he claims their divorce was never finalized. He wants half of everything Kari owns. When he dies suddenly, Kari is the primary suspect. Can she find the killer before she is arrested?

The pace of the book felt a bit slow to me. I had a bit of trouble sticking to reading it. The mystery is very well plotted though. The characters are engaging and likeable. It just wasn't my favorite in the series so far.

Love Kari and Queenie!

Really enjoyed the third installment in the series! I went back to audio after reading the second because I like the narrator so much. In this one, Kari’s abusive ex husband shows up and she’s tossed into a murder suspect list once again, forced to prove her innocence- and solve yet another case for the sheriff! Wish there were more in the series so I could keep going.

The character was too passive in this.

I really found the character aggravatingly passive and I almost stopped listening. She was saying no but still not fully standing up for herself and it bothered me. But the reader was amazing.

Wonderful Story!

I have loved all of her books and this one is no exception! This was a perfect cozy mystery to listen to today! I was home sick and it is cold and rainy outside. I was able to put this to a Bluetooth speaker and just relax and try to figure out the mystery as the story went along.
I also love that she snuck her kittens real life into the book!!
