A pet-phobic PR person, a gallant veterinarian and an eccentric cat team up to solve a mystery.
Evie Springdale calls herself a pet-skeptic: she doesn't hate animals, but she doesn't exactly love them, either. That’s why her move to Dorset Hills to handle public relations for the dog-crazy town comes as a surprise to her twin brother, Nick, a Dog Town convert. Few people know that Evie’s lost eight political jobs and eight romantic relationships in recent years. It’s time for a fresh start and she’s determined to make her "ninth life" completely different.
When she finds an injured cat trapped between the doors of her new house in Dorset Hills, Evie’s feelings about pets are put to the test. And when that cat brings home evidence of a crime that could cause a public relations fiasco, she needs to decide whether to do the right thing … or the job she was hired to do.
