In Fran Stewart s most emotionally charged novel so far, small-town librarian Biscuit McKee confronts Glaze, her bipolar sister on the verge of deep depression. Glaze has an ex-boyfriend sitting in jail and plotting ways to get even with Glaze through kidnap and extortion. Biscuit s good friend Margaret becomes a pawn in this attempt for revenge. Complications result in mistaken identities, dire misunderstandings, and a kidnapping gone horribly awry. Marmalade, Biscuit s orange and white tabby cat is once again misunderstood by her humans. They think she s only purring.
