Publisher's summary

A car crash, a missing treasure, a dead thief, and a suspicious blond divorcée have feline P.I. Joe Grey and his four-legged cohorts clawing for justice in this lively new entry in the beloved, award-winning series.

Kate Osborne, a divorcée, reappears with a fortune and a strange story about how she obtained it. Meanwhile, a terrible car crash involves tortoiseshell Kit and her elderly housemates, Lucinda and Pedric Greenlaw. The accident is terrifying enough, but then two mysterious men steal the car - and the secret treasure hidden inside its doors. When one of the thieves ends up dead, Joe must discover if the events are connected - and why. With the investigation in trouble, will they find the killer…or be left chasing their tails?

Good

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

I like the previous stories better. This one didn't have the fun adventure.

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

The story could have been good if I could actually tell where the author was trying to go with it.

Did Susan Boyce do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

Yes

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

Maybe the movie would be better

Stolen Car and Hidden Treasures

Love this series, and book 18 is no exception! Pedric and Lucinda Greenlaw are on their way home to Molena Point from San Francisco when there is an accident and landslide near Santa Cruz. The Greenlaws Lincoln Town car goes off the road and the Greenlaws are seriously hurt and Kit prepares to go for help, but before she can, a pair of drifters attack Pedric and steal their car . . . hidden in the door panels are precious jewels. So Kit, Dulcie and Joe Grey have their work cut out for them searching for the car thieves and the Greenlaws' friends keep busy nursing them back to health. Kit meets Pan, who is looking for his father, Misto, and the two fall instantly in love. 😘 There's a lot going on, but its not hard to keep track of it all. All of our favorite characters are present, Max and Charlie Harper, Clyde and Ryan Damon and the Greenlaws. Great addition to the series!

Joe grey is one of the best detectives!

Non-traditional, funny and spunky. For stress relief and a smile these books are great. I love when Joe and Clyde bicker. It’s too funny.

I’m sorry the author has passed, but Joe will live on thanks to her.

cats story

This is my favorite one yet of this series! I enjoyed the glimpse given of Kate's adventures into the other world. I appreciated that the author tied up the story and enjoyed cheering when several different characters got what they deserved..... some were rewarded others punished, others vindicated.... it was an enjoyable listen!

Put me in a very bad mood

It was very hard to listen to the abusive mother and the constant annoying dialogue involving Vic - I would get so irritated I’d have to stop listening for awhile. I love this series for the most part, but if I had known how irritating this one was I would have skipped it for sure.

Still an enjoyable series. Characters are pretty engaging. Cats are clever and all too human.

Great as always.

All of the Joe Grey mysteries are wonderful. Susan Boyce does her usual stellar job in performing, and we are given a bit more exposition into the crew of usual characters with two new recent additions of talking cats.
I confess that this particular story line was harder to listen to than some. It was distressing listening to the murderer plotting a murder you knew was going to happen. It was a bit darker than most.

Gifted narrator

Susan Boyce, who does most of the narrations for the Joe Grey mysteries, does such a fabulous job.

The Joe Grey mysteries are such a charming series with well thought out cozy mysteries being solved by a team of speaking cats. I am currently enjoying the entire series again on audio.
