Murder unexpected- Anita Waller- Crime
Kat is now heavily pregnant and to be on the safe side she has moved in both Doris and
Mouse, not only because of the imminent birth but because it appears that she has had
an unwelcome visitor in her home, one she suspects maybe her soon to be ex husband.
To find out about him, you need to read the first book in the series- Murder Undeniable
(5* from me) for this to make sense. The three women have now opened a detective
agency , Connections, and one of their first cases is to find the birth mother of a man
who has recently died. His wife is keen to find her as this was one of his wishes. Very
soon there is a murder (as you would expect!) and not to do with the case. The local
DI is beginning to wonder about Kat, Mouse and Doris as bodies seem to appear
around them. When they find another one things change and their case soon
becomes one for the police.
Oh I love this trio. The camaraderie is wonderful and oozes through the pages.
Yes there are murders, but this is a “cozy” type read. One that keeps you engaged
and with a smile. Yet again I didn’t want the book to end. Anita- please please keep
writing these- they are truly wonderful and so very different from anything else out
there. That special “je ne sais quoi” of talent that Anita has in spades, make that
bucketfuls. A really enjoyable, entertaining read.

Kat and Mouse are back.
Church Deacon Kat and her friend Beth, known as Mouse, have started a private investigation business in the sleepy village of Eyam.
Kat, whose estranged criminal husband, Leon, is on the run, has a lot on her plate running the new business whilst heavily pregnant.
When a widow asks the sleuths for help, Kat and Mouse find themselves searching for the birth mother of the widow’s husband. But when it becomes clear that the widow isn’t telling the whole truth, Kat and Mouse are drawn into a deadly chase where nothing is what it seems.
Meanwhile, Kat’s husband has come back to Eyam and has Kat in his sights.
Can Kat and Mouse solve the case and escape the dangerous Leon?
This time they might just be out of their depth…
About the Author:
Anita Waller was born in Sheffield, South Yorkshire in 1946. She married Dave in 1967 and they have three adult children.
She has written and taught creative writing for most of her life, and at the age of sixty nine sent a manuscript to Bloodhound Books which was immediately accepted.
In total she has written seven psychological thrillers and one supernatural novel, and uses the areas of South Yorkshire and Derbyshire as her preferred locations in her books. Sheffield features prominently.
And now Anita is working on her first series, the Kat and Mouse trilogy, set in the beautiful Derbyshire village of Eyam. The first in the series, Murder Undeniable, launched 10 December 2018, and the second in the series, Murder Unexpected, launches 11 February 2019.
The trilogy has now been promoted to a quartet following the success of the first book; she is currently working on book three, Murder Unearthed. Book four doesn’t have a title, a plot, a first sentence… but she remains convinced it will have!
She is now seventy-three years of age, happily writing most days and would dearly love to plan a novel, but has accepted that isn’t the way of her mind. Every novel starts with a sentence and she waits to see where that sentence will take her, and her characters.
In her life away from the computer in the corner of her kitchen, she is a Sheffield Wednesday supporter with blue blood in her veins! The club was particularly helpful during the writing of 34 Days, as a couple of matches feature in the novel, along with Ross Wallace. Information was needed, and they provided it.
Her genre is murder - necessary murder.
