Purrfect Heat

Murder is on the menu... and the kitchen is heating up!

Hampton Cove’s tranquility is shattered when celebrity chef Niklaus Skad—infamous for his fiery temper and hit show Kitchen Disasters—is found cooked to perfection in his own oven. With a long list of enemies and more suspects than a bad buffet, it’s up to reporter Odelia Poole and Detective Chase Kingsley to turn up the heat on the investigation.

Meanwhile, Max, Odelia’s blorange tabby, has his own crisis: a new stray named Diego has joined the household, ruffling fur and wreaking havoc. Worse, Diego has his sights set on Harriet, stirring up a cat love triangle that has Brutus in a funk and Dooley convinced he’s dying from heartbreak.

Between tracking down a killer, dodging kitchen chaos, and refereeing a feline feud, Max has his paws full. But with tempers rising—and Gran’s mysterious new crush adding even more spice—can he sniff out the culprit before someone else gets burned?

Find out in Purrfect Heat, the next laugh-out-loud installment in The Mysteries of Max—a delightful cozy mystery series purrfect for fans of feisty felines, quirky humor, and twisty whodunits!
