Meet Epiphany Bloom: devoted cat owner, well-meaning walking disaster zone ā daring detective?
EpiphanyĀ lives in a cozy corner of London, scraping a living from a baffling variety of odd jobs. But lately work has been hard to come by, and now even her beloved cat Most is feeling the pinch. The trouble is, every job she has ends up going wrong somehow. When an office temp assignment with a private investigator leads to her mistakenly being set on the trail of a missing boy, it seems this time is doomed to be no exception!
MattyĀ is the young son of wealthy but distant American parents, and Epiphany would desperately like to believe heās just run away so she can go back to temping and collect her pay cheque in peace. But he doesnāt know anyone in London ā where would he run to? And thereās been no word from him for days.
In a battle between her soft heart and her empty wallet, Epiphanyās heart wins every time. Most will just have to endure the value cat food a little longerā¦
As rumours reach her that one of Mattyās few friends is also missing, now presumed dead, she realises sheās running out of time to bring him home safe. Her investigation takes her from grand Kensington mansions to scruffy East End cafes, where she finds a clue that will crack the case at last.
But by now she knows how far the people who have taken Matty will go to get what they want ā will she be able to reach him in time?
A warm and light-hearted cozy mystery for fans of M.C. Beaton, T E Kinsey and Joanne Fluke, featuring an irresistible new heroine.
