For eleven years, nobody opened the door. When Opal Puckett raises her hand at a county auction on a stranger's impulse, she isn't looking for a fresh start. She's just looking for a Saturday that doesn't feel so empty. What she gets instead is a locked-up antique shop nobody in town will go near — and a starving black cat nobody can explain, who's been alone inside it since the woman who loved him disappeared without a trace. He's not what she expected. Sharp-tongued, guarded, furious in ways he won't admit to — and the longer Opal stays, the more she understands exactly why. This is the story readers of the Whispering Whiskers Mysteries have been asking for: how Opal Puckett became the woman who ran that shop for thirty years, how a cat named Mortimer learned to trust someone again, and what really happened to the woman who came before her. The House on Hazel is a free prequel to A Familiar Problem, Book One in the Whispering Whiskers Mysteries — a cozy paranormal mystery series where every antique has a story, and some of them have been waiting a long time to be told.
