A Purr Before Dying

Nick and Nora Mysteries, Book 6

No one's who they seem in the thrilling new Nick and Nora Mystery, and someone's playing the part of a clever killer . . .

When a nighttime soap opera comes to town to film an episode, no one's more excited than Nora Charles, who's landed the contract for catering the shoot. But if she thought the show's plotlines were full of drama and intrigue, that's nothing compared to what she witnesses among the cast and crew. With half of them sneaking off for secret liaisons one minute and at each other's throats the next, it's all a titillating behind-the-scenes look for Nora—until she stumbles across the body of the show's slain director.

It's not long before the local authorities finger the brother of Nora's good friend for the evil deed, and it's up to Nora and her sidekick Nick to get him off the hook. As she begins to sort out the cast's romantic entanglements and professional rivalries looking for a motive, she also discovers that the victim was involved in the mysterious death of the show's previous director. And then another member of the crew is found murdered, and Nora knows she'll have to act fast to figure out who's playing the part of the killer, before she's cast in the role of the next victim . . .

Entertaining in every respect

I love these characters. This new member of the Nick and Nora series is as well conceived as the earlier versions. The narration is excellent. My only. Implying is that we have to wait too long for the next book in the series.

Loved it

T. C. LoTempio has penned another excellent storyline in her Nick & Nora Mystery series with A Purr Before Dying , which is the sixth book in the series. The characters are well developed and the storyline is quite believable.
Amy Rubinate gave a standout performance as she brought the story to life and gave each character their own distinct voice.
I highly recommend this book and series to cozy mystery fans.
