Murder by Moonlight (Felines of Fairytale Forest) by K.L. Montgomery – Review by Santana Hicks

Murder by Moonlight by K.L. Montgomery
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Catherine (Cat) has been working as a night custodian at the Fairytale Forest amusement park for years. Her and her work bestie, Gloria make the best of it by amusing each other. Neither of them take the managers seriously so when one is found strangled to death, the duo are the top two suspects.

The amusement park employs cats to hunt for rodents. It is known to leave the cats alone so they do not become dependent on the humans. Catherine never bothered with the cats before but then Zoe, the leader of the cats, leads Catherine to the body. Turns out Catherine can understand and talk to the cat. Thus becomes a sleuthing partnership. Catherine must find out who the killer is to clear her name.

I really enjoyed this book and the characters. Cat was a carefree and fun adult who was middle aged which is rare for main characters in books. That is an automatic brownie point. I wasn’t a huge fan of the felines point of view. It was too stiff in my opinion. But then again, I could totally see one of my cats talking like that so who knows? The author could be spot on with how cats talk.
