Hiss of Death: A Mrs. Murphy Mystery

Summary

The writing tandem of Rita Mae Brown and her feline collaborator Sneaky Pie craft the 19th tantalizing mystery from their New York Times bestselling Mrs. Murphy series. In Hiss of Death, even a grave illness cannot keep Mary Minor “Harry” Haristeen from investigating a suspicious death.

Spring is in the air, and Harry is looking forward to her first season of harvesting grapes when she learns she has stage one breast cancer. Confined to a hospital, Harry is distracted from her condition when popular nurse Paula Benton—organizer of the 5K Run for Breast Cancer Awareness—turns up dead. When another hospital staffer kicks the bucket soon after, it falls to Harry and her animal friends to crack the case.

With Harry fighting her courageous battle, and her faithful animals providing their loyal support, Hiss of Death ranks among the most emotional tales from this beloved series.
