Richard Jury is still dealing with the guilt of the accident that sent Lu Aquilar into a coma. But then he gets assigned the case of a beautiful woman who was murdered on the grounds of a pub called the Black Cat. And the only witness is a black cat. The woman is unidentifiable-but Jury is going to see that the person responsible is known to all...

This cat wandered into my life a few months ago and so far has not been interested in being a lap cat, but today he has been snuggled up next to me in the chair while I've been reading so he may have potential as a reading buddy 😻

wanderinglynn Aw, how sweet! 🖤🐱 2y
Aims42 He seems like he respects your hobby, maybe he was a reader in a past life? 😁😽 2y

ReadingisMyPassion It took my latest cat four months to allow me to pet him. Now he demands petting from anyone who enters my house. 2y

This morning this little gal came to my door and let me pet her. She came inside for like 2 seconds (she is such a tease!) But I know today is going to be great because she showed me some “love“. (She is the brewery cat - I live in an apartment behind the brewery for this nursing assignment). #SelfCareBingo

ElizaMarie @wanderinglynn and @jb72 - she is darling but such a tease. Like she has sat with me a couple of time since I have been here (since March) but then she comes and bangs into the door like she wants in but then just teases me! Ah!!! But I love her! 4y

#ScreamathonPhotoChallenge #BlackCat @4thhouseontheleft In fifth grade I had this demon kitten named Rayn. My teacher had found a whole litter of kittens in a flooded tree stump, and the mom was ran over so she was giving them away. Big mistake.

When you make your own vinyl stickers, and your obsessed with cats in general, it‘s makes it hard to choose which mug best fits today‘s #BlackCat prompt. I think I‘m going to have to go with the Black Cat Society one, since I designed the cut file myself. 🖤 #TeamSlaughter

I love cats, and always look for them when I‘m out. This dark gray (almost black) one often crosses my path when I‘m doing my audiowalks. The only problem is, instead of fully crossing he lays down in my path until he decides that I‘ve scratched him enough. #FallIsBooked

Hey guys! Sorry I‘ve been a little distant from Litsy lately. I‘ve been dealing with an abscess tooth for the last week and a half. ☠️ I just had the root canal today, and although my jaw is sore.. I‘m feeling much better. Just wanted to let you all know that I‘ve been keeping track of all your #blackcatchallenge entries! Can‘t wait to see what else you have for me! ♥️☠️👻

Here are my black cats 😍

CouronneDhiver Ouchie! Feel better soon. Have you got any of your wedding photos back yet? I‘ve been hoping for a peek! 5y

squirrelbrain @ErinGoBragh1011 - you should post pictures of Annabel Lee - she sounds cute! We‘ve had Pepsi (we had her sister Cola too) since they were about a year old, which was 20 years ago. Cola was very different - she was orange, black and white and a much cleverer cat than Pepsi, who‘s a bit dippy, bless her! 6y

Yes, this is a cat and not a book. But we said goodbye today to this handsome gentleman, Melvin. I‘d had him almost 11 of his almost 17 years. He was with me through 5 homes, multiple boyfriends and taught my husband how awesome cats are. He beat diabetes, but he couldn‘t beat old age and cancer. I will love him forever but he‘s better off now. #catsoflitsy
