Freelancer Theda Krakow is thrilled when she lands an assignment to write a piece on a gifted musician. She loves listening to bands-particularly her friend Violet's brand of riot grrrl punk. But her joy turns to outrage when feline-friendly Theda learns that someone is stealing show cats. Whether running Boston's streets or hanging out in her Cambridge neighborhood, Theda knows her city-and its music scene-well. So when a kindly cat breeder is implicated in the show cat thefts, Theda must put that knowledge to work to find the culprit before it is too late. Praise for Cattery Row... "With the well-developed cast of characters and a multi-layered plot, this feline mystery is the cat's meow." -Publishers Weekly "Cattery Row is a pleasant and diverting book. Simon clearly has talent." -Boston Globe "Cat lover or not, this story should please." -Mystery News Clea Simon is the author of the Theda Krakow (Probable Claws) and Dulcie Schwartz (Grey Matters) mystery series, as well as three nonfiction books. A recovering journalist, she lives in Massachusetts. www.cleasimon.com

Cattery Row Someone is stealing show cats, and both the feline-friendly Theda Krakow and her friend Violet, who runs the local shelter, are outraged. When a kindly cat breeder is implicated in the thefts, Theda resolves to uncover the culprits. Full description
"With its well-developed cast of characters and a multilayered plot, this feline mystery is the cat's meow." --Publishers Weekly "A well done example of the traditional (or cozy") mystery, Cattery Row is a pleasant and diverting book. Simon clearly has talent, and it will be interesting to watch how her writing develops" --Boston Globe
"The mystery's a winner, but the real appeal of Simon's work is Theda herself ...Cat-themed mysteries are often classified as "cozies," but Cattery Row is, if not hard-boiled, nowhere near cute -- except, of course, for the cats. Simon writes with grit, and in Theda, she has created a flawed and sometimes infuriating protagonist, one readers will want to see for many more lives." -- Jay Strafford, Richmond Times-Dispatch (10/29/2006)
