Stormy the Cat Investigates Murder of Unscrupulous Businessman in When the Cat’s Away, a Cozy Mystery from Louise Clark
—Kingston and Ottawa, Ontario, Canada—
Quinn and Christy's relationship is tested when a family vacation is interrupted by an urgent request from Tamara, Quinn's ex-girlfriend, whose father, Todd Ahern is accused of murdering a business associate, Ralph Sharpe, following a violent argument. Ralph and Todd were board members for a non-profit but had strongly differing views on direction and management. Now, chief suspect, Todd swears he is innocent.
Quinn and Christy discover Ralph was disliked within the organization and for his business practices, but when they uncover a knockoff of an innovative kitchen gadget, the real motive becomes clear.
Christy, Quinn, and Frank—in Stormy the Cat—stage a dramatic unmasking to exonerate Todd and flush out the killer.

About The Author: The author of the 9 Lives Cozy Mystery Series, Louise Clark has been the adopted mom of a number of cats with big personalities. The feline who inspired Stormy, the cat in the 9 Lives books, dominated her household for twenty loving years. During that time he created a family pecking order that left Louise on top and her youngest child on the bottom (just below the guinea pig), regularly tried to eat all his sister’s food (he was a very large cat), and learned the joys of travel through a cross-continent road trip.
The 9 Lives Cozy Mystery Series—as well as the single title mystery, A Recipe For Trouble, are all set in Louise’s hometown of Vancouver, British Columbia.
