Nine Lifelines: A Psycho Cat and the Landlady Mystery
by Joyce Ann Brown
Joyce Ann Brown brings back landlady Beth & her clue-sniffing cat in the third book of her Psycho Cat series.
A ghoulish, cranky elevator, condo break-ins, and her renter not paying on time. Beth, the landlady, and her husband, Arnie, have retired to the building where Beth's last rental unit is located. Have they made a mistake?
Beth vowed to do no more sleuthing, but when her tenant is arrested for the murder of the Peruvian neighbor who fell (was pushed?) from the tenth-story balcony, the Ukrainian’s French wife is left without support, and the dead neighbor's grandchildren are left with only their wheelchair-ridden grandmother to care for them, Beth has to do something.
Is Sylvester providing clues with his psycho-cat behavior? Is the renter actually the killer? Do the break-ins and elevator problem have anything to do with the murder? Even Arnie, who has always told Beth to keep her nose out of police business, gets involved—for the sake of the children.
