Twenty-something Kinley Remington has problems. She’s stuck in a dead-end job at the local bank with a terror of a boss, but she’s too timid to try to look for something elsewhere. Whether are not she stays at the bank is taken out of her hands when she is fired for leaving eighty-something heiress Miss Penelope Slope in the bank’s vault alone. Shortly after, Miss Penelope’s priceless diamond necklace comes up missing.
Kinley feels horrible and goes straight to Miss Penelope’s mansion to apologize only to learn that Miss Penelope took the necklace herself. Surrounded by the many cats from her cat rescue, Miss Penelope promises Kinley she will clear up the misunderstanding with Kinley’s employer. However before Miss Penelope can make things right, she is murdered in her own home with only the cats as witnesses.
Kinley was the last person to see Miss Penelope alive and they are looking to her for answers and as a suspect… Kinley must play sleuth if she doesn’t want to spend the rest of her life in prison.
And the cat rescue? That’s on Kinley’s shoulders too. For the first time in her life, Kinley Remington will have to take control of her life and make decisions to save herself and Miss Penelope’s cats.
