I spent two evenings reading an ebook novella, Depawsit Slip by Nancy C Davis. It is the first installment in the "Vanessa Abbot" cozy cat mystery series.

Vanessa owns and runs the Cat Protection League, which basically means she's a glorified crazy cat lady. When taking her shop's deposit to the bank one afternoon, she and a group of townsfolk are distracted by an accident outside. Inside, one of the observers drops dead at the others' feet with a knife sticking out of his back. Now that Vanessa is a suspect, she wants to clear her name and figure out who dunnit.

The writing wasn't bad...FOR A TWELVE YEAR-OLD. I got this ebook for free, which is the only good thing I have to say about it. Had I paid for this dreck, I would have been appalled. What was wrong with it? Let's see...

Rant, ahoy! )

Favorite line: I'm just a weird old cat lady. True, that.

One out of five:
