Resumen del Editor

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?

Love the series ,hate it when it's over.

The most creative , imaginative
authors. The books in the series
almost have me believing that there are cats with the ability to
speak to their human housemates. Funny, emotional
and deliciously charming. I wish
the author the best . Her books
are uplifting to the spirit. I makes
an adult believe in a special kind
of magic. I'm sorry to hear the last book has been published.
The series has given me great
joy and laughter. Thanks Shirley
Russo Murphy. I will miss your
wonderful way of telling a great
story.

Very scattered plot

I found it a bit annoying that all the characters knew a little of the overall story but didn't put it together until late in the book because they just didn't communicate (and I realise this was a deliberate plot device but the fact it was obvious was clumsy).
But the characters were charming as usual

I feel like I missed a book in between this one

As I love all these books, this was a winner again. Although I kept going back and making sure I was in the correct book in line. I feel like there should have been a book before this one, one about Kate's adventures.

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.

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.

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!

Very likeable

A bit of a fantasy but well worth listening if you like cats and cozy mysteries.

another good boom in the Joe Grey series

Enjoyed this book and the performance as usual. author introduces new characters ti keep interesting.

Fun Listen

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

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!
