Book One in the Kaitlyn Willis Road Signs Mystery Series
Meet Kaitlyn Willis, a Code Enforcement officer for the City of Cedar Grove, Washington. Kaitlyn loves routine, the simple life, and living and working in the city she loves. And of course, pizza. And ice cream.
While investigating a nuisance complaint, Kaitlyn stumbles on more than rusty cars and piles of trash. Instead she finds an appalling case of animal hording—and a dead body.
Kaitlyn gets pulled into the investigation, partly to banish the visions of neglected animals and also to stay off the suspect list. But a murder in HER town doesn’t sit right.
Simultaneously, she’s helping her best friend through a tumultuous breakup, managing a huge stray cat who adopted her, and fending off the attention of a guy she’s known since childhood. Having lusty thoughts for the head detective on the case isn’t making life any easier.
As Kaitlyn talks to neighbors and friends of the “animal house,” it’s clear there’s something afoot in this neighborhood and it may be tied to the city’s revitalization plan. In the week ahead, Kaitlyn will fear for her job, wonder which of her co-workers she can trust, and end up being trapped by a killer.
