It's a snowy day in the city of Decreston, New York. After 25 years of service, Detective Derrick Mallow is retiring from the Decreston Law Enforcement Division.

But not long after Mallow arrives, there are two mysterious murders and a suicide. A small boy claims he saw a demon leaving one of the crime scenes.
 
Together with his fellow police officers and the Jenkins County Sheriff's Department, Mallow must piece together the clues and find the killer. But is it the culprit really a demon, or something even more sinister?

Purrfect Murder

Nic Saint

Sometimes it takes a cat to catch a killer
There’s something special about Max. He may look like your regular ginger flabby tabby, but unlike most tabbies he can communicate with his human, reporter for the Hampton Cove Gazette Odelia Poole. Max takes a keen interest in the goings-on in their small town, by snooping around with his best friends Dooley, a not-too-bright ragamuffin, and Harriet, a gorgeous white Persian. Their regular visits to the police station, the barbershop and the doctor’s office provide them with those precious and exclusive scoops that have made Odelia the number one reporter in town.
But when suddenly the body of a bestselling writer is discovered buried in the last Long Island outhouse, and a new policeman arrives in town to solve the murder, it looks like things are about to change in Hampton Cove. Detective Chase Kingsley doesn’t take kindly to nosy reporters like Odelia snooping around ‘his’ crime scene or interviewing ‘his’ suspects. And to make matters worse, he’s got a cat of his own: Brutus, a buff bully, who likes to lay down the law. Soon Brutus isn’t just restricting access to all of Max’s usual haunts, but he’s getting awfully friendly with Harriet, threatening to break up the band.
Now it’s all Odelia, Max and Dooley can do to try and solve the murder, in spite of Detective Kingsley’s and Brutus’s protestations, and show the overbearing cop and his bullyragging feline how things are done in Hampton Cove. Will Odelia find the killer before Detective Kingsley does? And will Max prevent Brutus from moving in on his territory and taking over the town? Find out in Purrfect Murder, the first book in the popular Mysteries of Max series.
