SynopsisIn this mystery in the New York Times bestselling Cat in the Stacks series, librarian Charlie Harris and his cat Diesel must clear the name of someone near and dear to their hearts--Charlie's own daughter. Athena College's new writer in residence is a famous native son, playwright Connor Lawton, known for his sharp writing--and sharper tongue. After an unpleasant encounter, librarian Charlie Harris heads home to a nice surprise: his daughter, Laura, is visiting and will be subbing for another professor this fall semester. It's great news until he hears who got her the job: her old flame, Connor Lawton... Fearing competition for Connor's affections, one of his admirers tries to drive Laura out of town. And then, before Connor finishes the play he is writing, he is murdered--and Laura is the prime suspect. Knowing she's innocent, Charlie and his faithful sidekick, Diesel, follow Connor's cluttered trail of angry lovers, bitter enemies, and intriguing library research to find the true killer before his daughter is forever cataloged under "M"--for murderer.

  • Cliffhangers make it difficult not to read just one more chapter.

    File M for Murder is the third volume in Miranda James' "A Cat in the Stacks Mystery" series. As such, with new, continuing characters being added to the Athena, Mississippi, community with each volume, it might make reading easier if Murder Past Due (1) and Classified as Murder (2) are read in order first. While other cat mystery authors spread their narrations over a time frame of weeks or months, Miranda James' stories tend to take place in just a few days, rarely more than a week. File M for Murder (paperback edition) includes 294 pages and 42 chapters. Thus several chapters contain the activities of a single day, and clues and suspicions can change quickly. As in any good mystery, the initial suspect is likely to be replaced by two or three others before the crime is solved.
