First Person Cat, by Jacque Heebner, is a fact-included fiction story about an intuitive Tortoiseshell Persian who (like all cats) was born knowing, and with the (usual) cat attitude, she combines her abilities to read minds and solve the murder of her owner and prevent the killer from his second crime.
In her new and long awaited celebrity endorsed book, First Person Cat , Los Angeles socialite, former Daily News journalist, and animal rights activist Jacque Heebner, takes us on a surreal murder mystery in the world of Beverly Hills power, money, and celebrity. However, this time the book is written from the point of view of Tiffany, a humanesque diva-feline brought up on caviar, Perrier, mansions, and an acute appreciation for diamonds, a girl’s best friend. This regal Tortoise shell Persian, witnesses the murder of her owner-mother, a Cher-like rock star with two hot daughters living at home in Beverly Hills. Like the blockbuster twentieth century novels famous in American literature and written from the animals point of view, (Jonathon Livingston Seagull, Watership Down, Charlotte’s’ Web, and Animal Farm), Heebner’s tome brings back the excitement of breakthrough communications with the animal world. But First Person Cat takes it to a higher level of communication-that with humans.
“If you have ever been afraid a truth couldn’t be told because of the high cost attached to it, did you feel as mute as a cat?” says author Jacque Heebner. ” How do you get the words out? Tiffany is my character, a combination of at least 12 cats I have owned over the years. In this mystery Tiffany seems to smell the murderer’s thoughts, and hear human words–by what creative methods can she expose the person who murdered her human mother, and to reveal this to investigators?”
Combining ingenuity, a whole lot of attitude, and natural born talents, Tiffany makes it her job to see that justice prevails. She hooks up with a handsome detective on the Beverly Hills police force, wraps her charms around him, and flirtations begin between them and with only one thought-to avenge her human mom’s death.
Well researched facts are woven into a tapestry about how kittens evolve into our playful, lovable furry friends, while Tiffany guides cat lovers and her new followers on a merry romp sleuthing through a sophisticated city with a glamorous population. ” As a writer and columnist from Beverly Hills, and whose many cats allowed me to live in my home with them, this true to life collection of experiences and on the spot observations, colored with some wild imagination, was written focusing on the child in all of us.” states Heebner.
Celebrity friends of Jacque Heebner have motivated her to start and finish this massive research and writing project five years in the making. They have put their endorsements in writing in the book including Tippi Hedren, Lou & Carla Ferrigno, Roger Williams, and Kelly Lange.
