A cat who thinks he’s a detective. A group of amateur female sleuths in a quiet beach town. A dead man. It’s a recipe for fun – unless you’re the local police chief.
There are worse ways to go than sitting on a beach chair in Paradise Cove with a refreshing drink in your hand. But who wanted the victim dead? Detective Whiskers will need all his new friends to solve the case, but do they even want to talk to him after solving his first murder has gone to his head?
Sheila’s grandson comes to visit Paradise Cove and love is in the air, along with too much body spray, when young Freddy meets Susi the housecleaner. He might regret staying in town, though, when the murder investigation turns in his direction.
The Paradise Cove Murder Society and Detective Whiskers are on the case … and getting in Chief Anderson’s way again.

Who would be crazy enough to commit murder while surrounded by dozens of crime mystery writers?
The evidence clearly points to one suspect. The problem is, there’s no way they could have done it.
Our cat detective and the Paradise Cove Mystery Society face an old foe in the fourth installment of the Detective Whiskers Cozy Mystery Series. The stakes have never been higher and the mystery has never been stranger.

Fast Five with Chris Abernathy
Hi Chris! Thank you so much for stopping by Brooke Blogs! I am excited to chat with you and hear your answers to my Fast Five Interview Questions. Congratulations on your newest release, Purrder, She Wrote!
1) What does a typical day look like for you? Do you write every day?
I haven’t had many ‘typical’ days lately. There always seems to be something going on, most recently a lightning strike that very nearly made us homeless for the second time in three years. The first was a hurricane in 2020. When I do get to stick to my preferred schedule, I start the day in my recording studio narrating an audiobook for another author or publisher and then spend the afternoon writing (and rewriting) my own books.
2) What or who was the inspiration for the Detective Whiskers Cat Cozy Mystery series?
In a way, my writing career itself is an inspiration for the story. I started my adult life with a very stable (comparatively speaking, at least) radio career. I spent 35 years on the airwaves, beginning in high school. My wife had a steady job as a classroom teacher. Then, a few years ago, we both decided that we wanted to start a new chapter in our lives. She moved to a more administrative position in higher education and I started narrating audiobooks. We didn’t stop there. We moved to the Gulf Coast for a change of scenery and our plans include more changes in the next few years.
My first couple of books looked backward, inspired by my radio career. The Detective Whiskers series looks forward and explores major life changes. The underlying theme is that things happen in our lives over which we have no control but we still have choices about how we will choose to live our lives in our new circumstances. Detective Whiskers and his companion, Sheila, are in a new home and missing Sheila’s husband who was Whiskers’ mentor and friend. They both are trying to rediscover themselves and find new purpose in their lives.
3) If you could have dinner with a character from one of your books, who would you choose and what’s for dinner?
Well, several of the characters are animals and all of them would be great companions but I’ll stick with humans for this question. I would likely choose Tarrie Ann because she makes some great margaritas and would have some great stories to share from her days as an actress on a television series. She’s just a lot of fun.
4) What are you currently reading?
I’m currently reading an unreleased thriller novel in the Ian Bragg series from Craig Martelle, preparing to narrate it for the audiobook. That’s a big perk for narrators — we get to read books before almost anybody else.
5) What do you like to do when you’re not writing?
When we moved to the Gulf Coast we decided that we should buy a boat so that we could properly explore the area. We enjoy taking it out on the weekends to find beaches and coves that can’t be reached by car. Sometimes it’s nice to be around lots of other people and other times it’s wonderful to drop anchor in a spot where you can’t see any other signs of human life. This fall we hope to take a few days to cruise down the Intracoastal Waterway to Apalachicola, Florida which is the area that helped inspire the setting for the Detective Whiskers series.
