Cat Got Your Crown is the fourth installment in the A Kitty Couture Mystery series set in New Orleans and featuring Lacy Crocker. A year after she's opened Furry Godmother, pet boutique and organic pet bakery, Lacy has been recruited by her mother Violet to help out at the National Pet Pageant.

The atmosphere at the NPP is vibrating with energy as the nerves of both owners and their precious pets reach a crescendo and Lacy is scrambling with last minute costume repairs. Making things worse for everyone is the annoying and rude Master of Ceremonies, Viktor Petrov. The vile MC is despised by most attendees but loved by the public and the crowds are expected to be huge as people flock to see him in action. When Viktor takes an unexpected plunge from the second floor balcony face first on to the buffet line it's only a shame that the food has been ruined.

The group of suspects with cause to push the man to his death is numerous, but Detective Jack Oliver has his sights set on Eva Little, one of the NPP's Welcoming Committee members. Believing that the timid woman would not act violently, Lacy sets out with the urging of Violet to hunt down the real killer.

A captivating plot featuring recurring characters will have readers laughing from page one at the antics of Lacy, her friends and family, and the Roomba riding Penelope. A truly delightful addition to the series and best of all the author seems to have wrapped up the love triangle between Lacy, her best friend Chase Hawthorne, and Jack. Oh, and the delicious organic pet recipes will have your furry friends crowding around your ankles in the kitchen.
