When Miranda Glivven's husband doesn't return from a secret assignment for the government, she goes out to look for him, starting at his last known location. Miranda's only companion on her quest for her missing husband is a cat. She finds that no one, not the authorities, nor the local citizenry, seem to want to help her. Some of them even think that Miranda is using magic (a treasonous offense) because of that cat. Set in a world where magic is officially denied, even while it is consistently rumored to exist, "Cat's Paw" is an entertaining and compellingly written novel that deftly combines mystery with fantasy. Author L. A. Taylor (she passed away from cancer in 1996) is revealed as a master storyteller of immense and imaginative talent. "Cat's Paw" is strongly recommended for school and community library fantasy/mystery collections. Also recommended reading are her earlier novels "Footnote to Murder" and "Blossom of Erda".
More of a mystery than fantasy, but good either way!

This book is one of my personal favorites! It is he story of the wife of a lighthouse keeper who sets out to find her long-lost husband. With a cat by her side and only a small handful of clues to go by, Miranda Glivven sets out to discover the secret behind her husband's strange disapearance. This book has plenty of suspence and mystery to hold a reader's attention 'till the very last page. I highly suggest it! A+
