Herbst in Crozet, Virgina: Ihr neuer Nachbar, ein junges, attraktives Model, hat es Postbeamtin Mary Minor »Harry« Haristeen angetan. Doch dann finden ihre Tigerkatze Mrs. Murphy und Corgi-Hündin Tee Tucker bei einem nächtlichen Streifzug eine abgehackte Hand im Gebüsch. Weitere Leichenteile folgen und plötzlich erscheint der Neuankömmling doch irgendwie verdächtig.
Mrs. Murphy thinks the new man in town is the cat's meow ...
Maybe she shoud think again.
Small towns don't take kindly to strangers - unless the stranger happens to be a drop-dead georgeous and seemingly unattached male. When Blair Bainbridge comes to Crozet, Virginia, the local matchmakers lose no time in declaring him perfect for their newly divorced postmistress, Mary Minor "Harry" Haristeen. Even Harry's tiger cat, Mrs. Murphy, and her Welsh Corgi, Tee Tucker, believe he smells A-okay.
Could his one little imperfection be that he's a killer?
Blair becomes the most likely suspect when the pieces of a dismembered corpse begin turning up around Crozet. No one knows who the dead man is, but when a grisly clue makes a spectacular appearance in the middle of the fall festivities, more than an early winter snow begins chilling the blood of Crozet's very best people.
That's when Mrs. Murphy, her friend Tucker, and her human companion Harry begin to sort through the clues ... only to find themselves a whisker away from becoming the killer's next victimes.
