Karen Kijewski published nine Kat Colorado novels between 1988 and 1998 and has apparently dropped out to raise a family.
Kat's Cradle, one of the earlier books, annoyed me a bit with some unnecessary plot twists and character inconsistencies -- almost as though the author was afraid she's lose me without them. I also tired of the abbreviated sentences and her overused "I hate it when that happens." That said, I wish she would resume writing because there is solid craft and mystery genre instinct that would make her better with maturity. ( )

Book description
Haiku summary

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0553293915, Paperback)

She's a hard-boiled Sacramento P.I. with a soft  spot for the unlucky, the unloved, and one special  cop named Hank. Her name is Kat Colorado and in  her line of business curiosity can be mre than an  occupational hazard -- it can be  murder.



She said her name was Paige Morrell and she  came to Kat Colorado hoping to untangle the twisted  mystery of her past. She was a  twenty-one-year-old "orphan," a poor little rich girl on  the verge of inheriting a weathy old river estate --  and some very nasty surprises. But when Kat set  out to solve the case, she found herself following  a thread of lies, greed and deceit that led  straight to the corpse of a key source to Paige's past.  Now the Sacramento private eye was about to learn  that in the California Delta some family secrets  were better left buried . . .because uncovering  them could be murder.
