Waterstones Says

The third in Shearer's much-loved feline crime series, The Cat Who Cracked a Cold Case finds retired police detective Lulu and sleuthing moggy Conrad investigate a spate of Manchester murders worrying similar to a cold case in London.

The Cat Who Cracked a Cold Case by L T Shearer is a charming cosy crime read for fans of Richard Osman and S. J. Bennett.

A crime gone unsolved for five years . . .

The life of Lulu Lewis, a retired police detective, took an unforgettable turn when Conrad first
introduced himself to her. Unforgettable because:

a) Conrad is a special cat.
b) Special because he told her so. Yes, that’s right, he can talk. (For obvious reasons, this ability
remains a closely guarded secret while they live together on her canal boat, The Lark.)

Visiting an old friend in Manchester, the pair stumble across a chilling news report about a trail of
bodies found across the city that echo a string of cold case murders from Lulu’s past in London.

Joining forces with the local police, the pair must use every ounce of their intuition in order to find a
connection between the seemingly random killings and track down a ruthless murderer . . .

MEDIA REVIEWS

Praise for The Cat Who Caught a Killer: A charming, off-beat story with some great characters. I’m sure it will make readers long for their own canal boat, and quite possibly – if they don’t already have one – their own talking cat. Conrad is a delight - SJ Bennett, author of A Death in Diamonds

Praise for The Cat Who Caught a Killer: Charming and original. This book is the cat’s whiskers - Anthony Horowitz, author of Close to Death

Praise for The Cat Who Caught a Killer: A captivating, charming and gentle tale, perfect for all those who love their crime cosy - Peter James, author of One of Us Is Dead

Praise for The Cat Who Solved Three Murders: A fabulous country mansion, an art heist and my favourite detective duo, Lulu and Conrad the Cat: this had me curled up and purring from first page to last - Orlando Murrin, author of Knife Skills for Beginners

Praise for The Cat Who Solved Three Murders: A terrific read - murder, arson and a cat who is so much more than he seems! - J. M. Hall, author of A Spoonful of Murder
