In book 2 of the new series, small items from the Seattle adoption center seem to keep turning up missing. After a bit of investigation, security cameras reveal that a black cat seems to be sneaking in at night to take whatever items might catch his eye. Bexley and her team are stumped as to his means of getting into the store, so Bexley comes up with a plan to track him down. She eventually determines that the cat is living on the street and has in fact built himself a nest which he has filled with various items stolen from businesses in the area. Once of the items Bexley finds in the cat's nest is a bracelet that was last seen on the arm of a teen who went missing more than three weeks prior, and another item found in the nest will provide a new clue in a very old murder case.
