Meet Conrad. Conrad is a cat. You've never met a detective like him before.

Neither has Lulu Lewis, until he walks into her life one summer's day. Mourning the recent death of her husband, the former police detective had expected a gentle retirement, quietly enjoying life on her new canal boat, The Lark, and visiting her mother-in-law in a nearby care home.

But when her mother-in-law dies suddenly in suspicious circumstances, Lulu senses foul play and resolves to find out what really happened. And a remarkable cat named Conrad will be with her every step of the way . . .

Reviews
Charming and original. This book is the cat's whiskers -- Anthony Horowitz
A charming, off-beat story with some great characters and wonderful London locations. I'm sure it will make readers long for their own canal boat, and quite possibly - if they don't already have one - their own talking cat. Conrad is a delight -- SJ Bennett
A captivating, charming and gentle tale, perfect for all those who love their crime cozy -- Peter James
