Purrfectly Framed (A Mobile Cat Groomer Mystery Book 2) by Ruth J. Hartman – Review by Santana Hicks

Purrfectly Framed: A Mobile Cat Groomer Mystery by Ruth J. Hartman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Molly is back with her cats ready to solve another murder! Molly’s friend, Evan, is a photographer and has been asked to work with Molly’s clients for pet portraits. When Molly went to his studio to meet him, he was in shock saying that there is someone in there. Molly went in to investigate and there on the floor was a woman bludgeoned. Turns out it was Evans’ old high school art teacher, Agnes Temple.

Agnes was a bitter old woman who thrived on causing trouble with anything and anyone around her, which means a number of people have motives.Once again the sheriff has his eyes set on one suspect and refuses to look into much else. This time his target is Evan. Molly knows that Evan has to be innocent so she takes it upon herself with the help of her friends to find the real murderer once again.

Seems like half the town is happy that Agnes is no longer able to cause trouble, any of these townspeople could be the murderer.

I was excited to read this book as soon as I finished the first one in the series ‘Brushed up on Murder’. I love Molly and her cats. She is stubborn, independent, caring and will stop at nothing to protect those she considers a friend. The way that the author wrote this book, it could be read as a stand alone. The only issue I had was how whenever the previous murder in book 1 was mentioned, it just kept saying ‘Whitewater Valley’s previous murder’. No previous names or anything making it unrealistic conversation and monotone in my opinion.
