A Pose Before Dying (2024) launches the Cat Yoga Mystery series with Ashley Branson discovering a body in her studio — a disliked college professor found dead in child’s pose. The premise combines the cozy mystery’s need for a distinctive setting with the cat theme that has proven consistently popular in the genre.
The series continues with A Purrfect Date (2025) and Scone Cold Dead (2025), with several more entries listed through the same year. The books sit comfortably alongside Erickson’s Bookstore Cafe work in tone and structure, offering readers familiar pleasures with a fresh setting.
