Description
Catseye Gomez, the savvy, magical, talking stray cat from The Wizard of Sante Fe returns in his own Rocky Mountain mystery involving a beautiful, ambitious broadcaster. When the young television journalist is killed by a car bomb, Gomez the feline detective pursues all the clues, as well as the victim's sexy calico.Catseye, P.I. Name’s Gomez. I’m a cat. And yeah, I talk. Because in an age of magic, nothing’s quite what it seems. When you combine magic with genetic engineering, predators and crooks take on a thousand different forms. So do the good guys. Denver was a new town, new turf for an old stray tom like me. I came in search of a fresh start, but what I found was criminal. It all began when Susan Jacobs, an ambitious and beautiful young broadcaster, met up with a car bomb that blew a lot more than her ratings sky high. After what happened in New Mexico, I needed a case like this like I needed a big hairball. But Susan Jacobs had a sexy little calico whose lambent golden eyes had a look in them that made it really hard to just say no….So together with a Zippo-snapping, studded leather rebel cop named Leventhal, I’m prowling the streets and alleys of the Mile High City among political whack-jobs, religious nuts, media weasels, talking snakes, gutter sorcerers and wizard wannabes, on a cat-and-mouse hunt for a killer. And when I find out who it is, the fur is really gonna fly…
