OK, this book is outrageous, but why not? I met the author, Carol Mays, at a poetry reading a few months ago and she told me about this book and the series that follows. I am the putative "guardian of a black cat so I know how it goes. I love Nevens Davenport, though, my so-called house guest does not have a British accent. She is more of a valley girl and she would never be an investment manager. And she does not have a staff of 12 (only me) or a lawyer.
The book takes place in Copus Christi, where I live and I love the idea of the CC police chief conversing with Nevins and standing up for him as he attempts to adopt the 6-year orphan, Clay. I knew Nevens would succeed, but the story was fun to follow.
If you love cats, especially black cats, then you should enjoy this book.
