So, as she pens her most recent crime thriller, shes a bit more than shocked to find out a murder has taken place right down the street. It takes all her intellect to convince her cousin, Marta, that no, she is not trying to solve the case. Shes only writing. The novel is about the character Helen and her police officer nephew who strive to solve a murder in a small town. In the novel, Helen goes for the Miss Marple routine, but she receives less respect than she expected. The killer is possibly someone Helen has known her whole life; how will she spot the fiend among her group of friends? Off the page, in the midst of real murder, the author has a right to be worried. The killer is concerned that this real-life sleuth might crack the case. What began as merely a flight of fiction has mimicked true life. The author fears for her safety, so of course, the only person she can turn to for advice is her cat Winston.

When 30-year-old Dean Nicholson set off from Scotland to cycle around the world, his aim was to learn as much as he could about our troubled planet. But he hadn't bargained on the lessons he'd learn from his unlikely companion. Three months after leaving home, on a remote road in the mountains between Montenegro and Bosnia, he came across an abandoned kitten. Something about the piercing eyes and plaintive meowing of the bedraggled little cat proved irresistible. He couldn't leave her to her fate, so he put her on his bike and then, with the help of local vets, nursed her back to health. Soon on his travels with the cat he named Nala, they forged an unbreakable bond -- both curious, independent, resilient and adventurous. The video of how they met has had 20 million views and their Instagram has grown to almost 750k followers -- and still counting! Experiencing the kindness of strangers, visiting refugee camps, rescuing animals through Europe and Asia, Dean and Nala have already learned that the unexpected can be pretty amazing. Together with Garry Jenkins, writer with James Bowen of the bestselling A Street Cat Named Bob, Dean shares the extraordinary tale of his and Nala's inspiring and heart-warming adventure together.
