A Field Guide To Homicide
Cat’s sweetheart, Seth, is going all out on an outing into the local mountains, for the benefit of the writing group Cat’s hosting at her Colorado B&B. But when they try to identify some plant and animal life, they find death instead. The body belongs to a man with a gold claim a few miles away. Instead of striking it rich, he’s been struck down.
To his surprise, Seth recognizes the victim from his military days, and up to now believed he’d already died during his last tour of duty. Now Cat has to solve this mystery before the killer takes a hike.

Cat is at it again in the latest “Cat Latimer Mystery” from Lynn Cahoon, A Field Guide To Homicide from Kensington Books. This time at least the body isn’t in her shop, and she’s not being accused of murder, thankfully!
Why is it everywhere Cat goes a body is sure to follow? This time someone is murdered up in the hills, and the only reason Cat is involved because she showed up with her newest writers retreat guests and discovered the body. In the newest addition to this literary series, Cat walks a fine line between staying out of the investigation, and diving in headfirst.
Characters in this series, including Seth, Uncle Pete, and Shauna are well established, but readers are still learning more about who they are as individuals. Each person involved brings a new twist to the story and allows the reader to enjoy the action and the read. A literary series steeped in writing and learning can sometimes be annoying, but Lynn Cahoon knows how to keep the story and the action moving. There are plenty of suspects with a motive that could apply to all of them.
In the end, Cat finds the killer. The question of who-done-it is never really in doubt; it’s the why that sets this book apart. The ending will leave readers smiling and looking forward to the next installment in this literary series. I am happy to recommend A Field Guide To Homicide to those looking for a fast, fun read that won’t leave them in a lurch.
Kaitlyn Dunnett’s literary series “A Deadly Edits Mystery” or Lauren Elliott’s thought-provoking series, “A Beyond the Page Bookstore Mystery”.
