The Time for Murder is Meow: Urban Tails Pet Shop Mysteries
by T. C. LoTempio
The world created by the author is described well and I was able to visualize the setting, characters, and scenes. I enjoyed the characters, setting, and path taken for the reveal.
~Sapphyria’s Books
With interesting characters and plenty of suspects, this is a study of motivation and opportunity . . . This series has potential to be a lot of fun.
~Laura’s Interests
Entertaining, smart, and funny, the Urban Tails Pet Shop Mystery series has wormed its way into my heart and I can’t wait to spend more time with its residents!
~Cozy Up With Kathy
Ms. LoTempio has done an excellent job on this book. The cats Purrday and Kahula are fantastic, along with Shell’s friends from Hollywood.

Shell McMillan and her furry sidekicks aren’t kitten around when they set out to catch a killer . . .
When her TV series is canceled, struggling actress Shell McMillan considers it a blessing in disguise. A beloved aunt who recently died left her a pet shop in her will, and she sees it as the perfect chance to walk away from Hollywood and make a fresh start in the sleepy town of Fox Hollow.
But adjusting to small-town life won’t be easy, as Shell realizes when the head of the museum board is found murdered not long after Shell had a very public argument with her. And when the new kid in town is fingered for the crime, she’ll have to rely on her own wit and pluck and the kindness of strangers to get herself off the hook.
Desperate to exonerate herself and catch the real culprit, Shell begins digging into the lives of the local residents, and she quickly discovers that the victim had no shortage of enemies. As the suspect list grows and time runs short, Shell and her cats will have to claw their way out of danger—and it’s meow or never . . .
