Publisher's summary

The stakes are higher and more personal than ever for feline investigator Joe Grey when death comes to his beloved coastal California town in this 20th installment of the enchanting cat mystery series.

While new father Joe Grey is overjoyed to teach his three young kittens about the world, he misses his cop work - secretly helping solve crimes alongside his human friends at Molena Point PD. But when beautician Barbara Conley and one of her customers are found dead in the salon, Joe makes an exception and heads for the crime scene. He has no idea that the kittens are following him, or how they will complicate the investigation.

But this is not the only danger to the kittens. A stranger is lurking around the home of Joe's tabby lady, Dulcie, where the kittens were born. Both parents' backs are up and their claws out, ready to protect their babies and to protect Wilma Getz, Dulcie's human housemate. As the death of the beautician becomes entangled with a gang of thieves working the village, Joe, Dulcie, Kit, and Pan are all into the investigation; and they are led to unexpected connections, to the building of the new cat shelter and to a neighbor who becomes suddenly an unexpected part of the tangle. Joe Grey fans will relish this latest installment following their favorite feline detective and his growing group of friends.

Fun and Unique

This a book for animal lovers and mystery lovers alike!! I wasn't expecting that
I would read the whole series! Cats helping police catch the bad guys and a a town of interesting cat and dog parents that are close friends make it great!!!

Grateful for a better story

Finally more of the cat and human families we love and less in the minds of criminals- though of course there are criminals to be caught.

Wonderful tales

This is a wonderful series. The books just blend together perfectly and the tales are so good. Cats and folklore mixed together with their human companions in a beautiful, setting. They are so perfect that I will listen to them again and again

Meh

For those who enjoy these types of books, I think you'll really like it. But I had a hard time differentiating humans and cats. The cats in this book talk and they have human-type drama. This was a "cozy mystery", and like I said, if you enjoy that type of thing, you will really love this book. It wasn't for me...some cars got stolen, someone was murdered, kittens discovered they could speak (like their parents), some humans got married and everyone lived happily ever after.
