Cat & Vivian
Synopsis
Vivian is a newlywed and a former reporter, and after an incident with her husband leaves her questioning the marriage and everything that was supposed to come after it, she runs to the one place that has always steadied her: her Nana's house on Tybee Island, in the low green islands outside Savannah.
Nana was once a legendary private investigator. Dementia has taken most of that away, but not the instincts, and not the rules she spent Vivian's childhood teaching her. So when the phone rings and Catherine Grant, a housewife in a gated development nearby, says she woke to find her husband and their baby daughter gone, Vivian answers it. She has no licence and no business taking the case. She takes it anyway.
Cat & Vivian is a novella by Amanda Eyre Ward, author of The Jetsetters and The Lifeguards, published as an Audible Original in 2022. It is a short, atmospheric Southern mystery about two women, the men who shaped their lives, and Nana's favourite principle: to understand the present, you have to examine the past.
