Book Description, Modified from Goodreads:
Professional cat grooming isn't all fluff--when the fur starts flying, Cassie McGlone, owner of Cassie's Comfy Cats, handles her feistiest four-legged clients with a caring touch and nerves of steel. While these qualities certainly help keep her business purring, they also come in handy when she makes a house call to her best client, millionaire George DeLeuw, and discovers his murdered body next to his newly orphaned Persian, Harpo.

To help the local police find the actual killer, Cassie begins her own investigation. But no one, from George's housekeeper to his vindictive ex-wife, is giving up clues. Not until Cassie is given permission to temporarily board Harpo does anyone show interest in the Persian's wellbeing. Someone is desperate to get their paws on Harpo before the feline helps untangle a felony. Are there deadly truths that Cassie can coax out? She needs to tread lightly and remember she gets one life, not nine....


My Review:
The Persian Always Meows Twice is a cozy mystery. The main character was a nice person who cared about others and about animals. She discovered the body and got involved because she was concerned about the dead man's cat being neglected. Once she arranged to board the cat, everyone suddenly seemed interested in getting the cat. She tried to discover why and turned in any evidence that she found to the police. She was not trying to figure out whodunit so much as why people wanted the cat. However, whodunit did come after the cat in the end (thus solving the case). Happily, Cassie did a good job of defending herself and the cats throughout the story.

There were no sex scenes. There was some bad language. Overall, I'd recommend this enjoyable cat-related mystery.
