The Cat of Monte Cristo

A NOLA Tail Mystery #3

by B.K. Baxter

Just when I thought things in my New Orleans suburb were starting to settle down, a crazy mayoral election throws a wrench into the works.Mayor Travis was used to applause from his days as a high school football star, but he’s more likely to hear boos nowadays, since his rival is painting him as soft on crime.Beulah’s recent uptick in crime has the mayor losing the case for re-election, and it doesn’t help when the other candidate starts getting threats she’s happy to lay at his feet.Mayor Travis swears his innocence, but some of his constituents are happy to believe he’s guilty.And yet, the rival candidate has secrets of her own, secrets that could come back to haunt her.Can Chonks and I unravel the mystery of where these threats before the ballots are cast?Can we save Beulah the chaos of a contested election?

Sir Chonksworth the Bold is a brilliant detective. It’s because of him and his investigations that I had this one figured out before Jade did. Now, that did leave me a tiny bit frustrated that the human portion of the sleuthing contingent hadn’t picked up on the clues quite so quickly, but Jade and the rest of the quirky residents of Beulah are just so darned entertaining, that I was perfectly happy to sit back and enjoy the ride. And, it’s looking like Chonks might already have another mystery on his paws that needs looking into. Whatever the case, I can’t wait until it’s time for us to come back and join my new favorite feline detective and his people as they uncover more of the secrets hidden in this irreverent small southern town.
I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book from the author.

The Cat Of Monte Cristo by B. K. Baxter
Chonks the houdini escape artist feline is on the case sniffing out the clues to Beulah’s newest mystery. His olfactory sense gives him the advantage over his humans sleuthing. I enjoyed Chonks antics as well as his ability to communicate with Jade that leads them to prevent a death.

Revenge served 20 yrs cold

Jade tries to stay out of the fray when the town’s mayor faces competition of a councilwoman in his re-election bid. Since mudslinging is the only game in town, both sides are trying to outdo each other. Chunks plays a big part in solving the mystery. Very well written. Hope there will be more soon for this series.

Chonks the Hero

Love this cat! Again, he was the key to solving the case. You will enjoy the clues and the speed with which the plot moves, as well as getting to know the characters.

Another fantastic Chonks mystery!

That cat really had me on edge all the way through this book. I loved this story line! Had lots of drama and plenty of humor. Chonks makes a great detective and I hope this series will continue.

Loved these books! They are fun reads, and I so enjoyed reading them before I went to bed. A little mystery, fun characters, and an adorable cat makes for a delightful evening! Enjoy.

IDK why this one took me longer to read - it was a cute story and completely representative of the cozy mystery genre. I think I just want a little more meat to the story (and not so much narration from the cat's perspective).
