SOME SECRETS ARE TOO BIG TO DROWN.

Serena Hartwell seemed to have it all, wealth, beauty, a stunning home on Daniel Island, and a Maine Coon who weighed more than most toddlers. Then she was found floating in her infinity pool, and Carrie Ashford's quiet pet-sitting job became another murder investigation.

The Hartwell family insists it was a tragic accident. The police seem inclined to agree. But Goliath, twenty-two pounds of orange-and-white fur with unsettlingly knowing eyes, saw what happened. And Carrie has learned to trust animals more than people.

WHAT YOU'LL FIND INSIDE:
  • A gentle giant Maine Coon who steals every scene

    A forty-year-old tortoise named Sheldon (yes, really)

    A dysfunctional wealthy family with deadly secrets

    The romance between Carrie and Marcus heating up

    Daniel Island luxury meets Charleston charm

    Margot and Phantom adjusting to new family members

    Clean cozy mystery with heart, humor, and a satisfying twist


    As Carrie digs deeper into the Hartwell family's perfect facade, she discovers that money can buy many things, but it can't buy loyalty, love, or silence forever.

    THE CAT CAME BACK is the third book in The Pet Sitter's Predicament series.
