Publisher's Synopsis
Margot Gardner's husband has run off with a woman half his age. He just disappeared, leaving behind a note and an insult. Margot must fend for herself for the first time in her sixty-three years. With the help of an unusually intelligent cat, who either talks in her head or she's going crazy, Margot makes a new life in a new home. Everything is going terribly, thanks to smart-mouth Odds, the cat. Then it gets worse when Margot stumbles onto the body of the building's superintendent. Margot is determined to find out if one of her neighbors is the murderer. It's a good thing she has Odds by her side, to get her into and out of trouble.
