Merlin and the Montreal Smuggling Ring

When Professor Eliza Bennett arrives in Montréal for a prestigious textile expo, she expects icy sidewalks, a flawless keynote, and maybe—just maybe—a flirtation with a handsome dressage instructor. What she does not expect is murder, corporate espionage, and a smuggling ring stitched into the seams of luxury winter coats.
Luckily, she never travels without backup.
Merlin, her imperious, sharp-tongued, orange-and-white feline companion, may look like a pampered celebrity cat, but behind the green eyes lurks a razor-sharp mind. When a warehouse shelf collapses—conveniently crushing a nervous NordLux logistics manager who was seconds away from revealing a secret—Merlin knows foul play when he smells it. And this time, it smells like weighted fabric, forged manifests, and a security chief with predator instincts.
As evidence disappears, suspects double back, and every corridor seems to echo with danger, Eliza and Merlin dive deep into Montréal’s underground city, a pastry-witch of a baker joins the cause, and a frozen city becomes the stage for a deadly game of cat-and-mouse. Quite literally.
Smart, atmospheric, and wickedly funny, Merlin and the Montréal Smuggling Ring blends textile science, dressage intrigue, and the unstoppable snark of one very opinionated cat into a mystery you’ll devour in one sitting.
Because when Merlin investigates?
Secrets unravel.
