What you need to know before your trail

Retired police detective Lulu Lewis’s life changed forever when she met a street cat named Conrad. There’s something very special about Conrad, but it’s a secret she has to keep to herself.

When Lulu takes her narrowboat to Oxford, she is planning nothing more stressful than attending a friend’s birthday party. And drinking a few glasses of Chardonnay.

But a brutal murder and a daring art theft means her plans are shattered – instead she and Conrad find themselves on the trail of a killer . . .

A killer who may well strike again.

Travel Guide

Oxford

Although the novel mentions Oxford and the canal in particular, there is no real sense of place. There are a few places of note on the map but these are fleeting and only really mentioned in passing. The canal and the boats on it are a key part of the book. Disappointing to find out that there doesn’t seem to be a ca cafe in the city or surroundings as this would have been an ideal place to visit and read the book. Are one of the cats in the cafe the star of this very novel?
