Saddled with Murder

A small town veterinarian turned amateur sleuth tracks a murderer during the holiday season in this cozy mystery pet lovers will enjoy. It’s the Christmas season and veterinarian Kate Turner is not feeling very jolly. She’s overworked, unappreciated, and dealing with two dissatisfied clients. Throw in a very complicated personal life and Kate's definitely got a case of the holiday blues. To make matters worse, Kate’s ex-boyfriend, Jeremy, is mugged and robbed after they have a heated argument in the hospital parking lot. Then, two of her dissatisfied clients turn up dead (which really gets Kate's tinsel in a tangle). All of these events seem like coincidences, but they add up to something much more venomous. Saddled with Murder is a cozy holiday mystery from beloved author Eileen Brady that explores the fragility and resiliency of animals and humans whose trust has been broken, and will keep animal-loving readers riveted until the last page. Praise for the Dr. Kate Vet mystery series: “Kate is a competent and compassionate protagonist cozy fans will want to see a lot more of.” —Publishers Weekly “A treat for animal lovers.” —Kirkus Reviews
