Fish and Chip: Nine Lives, One True Crime
About Fish and Chip: Nine Lives, One True Crime
From the rescue—to the rescue! The country’s hottest true crime podcasters have invaded Huckleberry Hollow Wonderland—and one of them just became their next episode. Now the podcasters are broadcasting theories, the suspects are getting star ratings, and my boyfriend’s ex-fiancée is cozying up to his mother and planning a wedding nobody proposed for.
Somewhere in that circus is a killer. Lucky for me, my best detectives have whiskers, attitude, and absolutely no respect for police procedure. A laugh-out-loud standalone cozy mystery by New York Times, USA TODAY, & Wall Street Journal bestseller Addison Moore.
Cosmopolitan Magazine calls Addison’s books, “...easy, frothy fun!” Humor with a side of homicide.
All books in the series can be read individually, so dive on in! *Includes RECIPE! Love talking pets and theme parks?
Then welcome to Huckleberry Hollow. The purrfect crime needs the purrfect detectives. Two cats, nine lives, one murder case.
A Note from the author, Addison Moore: Meet my sweet cats! (Yes, the real Fish and Chip are my fur-babies! And they are the cover models too!
)Book Description:Hi, I’m Josie Janglewood, and I own a theme park with a body count that could headline its own podcast. And this week, it basically does. When the Killer Content Convention descends on Huckleberry Hollow Wonderland, my theme park fills up with true crime podcasters—the microphones, the merch tables, and the fans who can recite alibi timelines the way other people recite song lyrics.
But when one of the biggest names in the business turns up dead, suddenly every host in attendance is recording an episode about my park while standing inside my crime scene. Nothing humbles you quite like hearing a stranger describe your churro cart as the last thing the victim ever smelled. Have I mentioned I can read the minds of animals?
Yeah, that’s sort of a thing. Fish has appointed herself lead investigator and considers the podcasters amateurs with better audio equipment. And Chip believes every interrogation goes smoother with a snack budget, and a Southern poodle named Cupcake has strong opinions about which suspects were raised right.
Newsflash—she’s always right. As if one murder on a live feed weren’t enough, my boyfriend’s hot-to-trot ex-fiancée strolls into the convention with a podcast of her own—and his mother, a woman who once accused me of collecting corpses as a flirting strategy, greets her like the second coming of good breeding. Add a handful of unemployed theme park villains auditioning for a shiny new home, and a second victim before I can even update the first press release, and I’ve got a double homicide where everyone’s a storyteller and somebody’s story is a confession waiting to happen.
The killer might know how this genre works. But lucky for me, so do my cats. Fish: We’re on a podcast.
Several podcasts. One of them called me an unnamed black and white cat. Unnamed.
I’ve been on SIX book covers. Chip: I got named! They called me the large orange one.
That’s basically a title. Like a duke. Fish: They also said the case would be cracked by seasoned professionals.
I’ve been seasoned since birth. What have these people ever solved besides getting a sponsor? Chip: I like the sponsor parts.
Somebody should sponsor me. I have a proven track record of finishing everything that lands in front of me. Fish: That’s not a track record, that’s a warning label.
Chip: I’m also launching my own show. It’s called Snacks Cold Case. Every episode, I investigate what happened to the food that was here a minute ago.
Fish: Spoiler. It was you who did it. It’s always you.
Chip: A good host never reveals the ending before it’s time, Fish. That’s episode one material and you know it. Stay tuned!
