Tiger Lily Ponders The Universe
February 24, 2020

The season of Lent is upon us. Tomorrow, the last day before Lent, will play host to the blow-out that made New Orleans famous. Well, maybe New Orleans is famous for a lot of things besides Mardi Gras. And to be honest, other towns celebrate Mardi Gras as well. And, well, I stated that badly. Tomorrow is not Mardi Gras. That's been going on for a while. Tomorrow is the last day, FAT TUESDAY! Learn more!
Volume 1: Turtle Soup

Annie’s café is in trouble. Several issues have marred otherwise pristine reviews from the Health Department. Annie can’t figure out what is happening or why. In the meantime, a not-so-very-good friend, Geraldine, has opened a diner that looks remarkably like the Café. Geraldine seems to benefit from Annie’s problems. Annie is blind, but Tiger Lily, the oldest of Annie’s cats, is wise to Geraldine’s deception.

A group of guests arrive at Annie’s bed and breakfast. They appear to be typical “beautiful people.” They have pre-booked an extended fishing cruise on the lake but arrive early to spend a few days in town. Intrigue seems to follow them. The intrigue turns darker, and through the efforts of another of Annie’s cats, Little Socks, the depth of their depravity is eventually made known to Annie and her friends. But is it too late?

Tiger Lily and her siblings, along with their canine friends Jock and Cyril, are wise to the dangers lurking around Chelsea, but they can’t seem to make their humans understand.

The humans are in the soup. They just don’t know it.
