Sydney returns home to North Carolina to help plan an even intended to keep the animal shelter where her sister Kat works afloat. A local bully threatens to do whatever it takes to stop the event, and Kat yells at him that it will be the last thing he will ever do. Since he is found dead not long after, Kat becomes suspect number one, and Sydney goes to work to prove her sister’s innocence. This well-paced mystery kept me in the dark right up to the end. Purr M for MURDER is the first in what looks to be a great new series.

This was an enjoyable read and one that I will very likely pass on to my son. I only recently became aware there was more than one book and this was engaging enough that I want to read the next one in the series. Unlike so many other fantasy books this one actually acknowledges the idea that when a child / teen / person goes into another "world" so to speak, the people they leave behind will worry about them. So many go into these other "worlds" and their original home and family get completely forgotten. I enjoyed that element of reality being brought to the story.
