How can you hold onto hope when what you love most is in danger?

Rowena Halley’s life hasn’t gone exactly as planned. Yes, she got the job
and the man and the family. She’s built the life she’d dreamed of for so long. But life throws curve balls. Like the phone call that turns her spring break plans upside down.

Next thing she knows, she’s pounding the mean streets of Chapel Hill in search of a very special cat. Then she finds out that more than one life is at stake. Can she find a win-win solution before it’s too late for everyone?

This uplifting cozy noir short read is set 25 years after the end of the Doctor Rowena Halley series and is approximately 17,000 words long. It touches on serious themes like Long Covid, climate change, and animal experimentation, but with an ultimately positive message.
