Resumen del Editor

Harry, the wonder cat, is no ordinary cat! Two centuries ago, he was tasked with caring for the Johnson family, helping them through life's ups and downs. Fast forward to the present. This story begins when Nikki Johnson, accompanied by her close friend Heather Murphy, had planned her annual quiet and relaxing Christmas visit to Harrot Reef to visit her beloved aunt Lynn. Plans changed when Nikki's aunt summoned her to come earlier because something was terribly wrong. The two friends arrived the next day to a shocking discovery. Loud howling led them to the library where they found aunt Lynn's crumpled body lying on the floor with her cat, Harry, next to her. The two women landed in the middle of a mystery. The only clues consist of a teacup, a copy of Agatha Christie's The Mysterious Affair at Styles, and a note on the mantle. This Christmas visit was going to be anything but quiet and relaxing.

The Legend of the Pink Diamond is a fantastical story passed down through generations of Johnsons and well known by the townspeople of Harrot Reef. A pink diamond is one of the most precious stones in the world, priceless and treasured for its beauty and rarity. As the story goes, accounts allege that one of these rare pink diamonds, mysteriously tied to crazy Frank Johnson, is still in the possession of the Johnson family. But is it just a story? Harry's magical powers help unravel the mystery behind the legend of the pink diamond.

Harry the wonder cat

Some people will love this book and others not so much.
I would have given it three stars because some of the characters need to be developed more. However, I gave it four stars because I have not come across a book similiar to this.

Harry is Wonderful

Harry the Wonder Cat by Denise Brixey is a great story. I live with a Maine Coon cat, so the details and antics in the story were very appealing. Cozy mysteries that allow for my imagination to soar are so much fun. Elements of the story were cute. Beth A. McIntosh is a new narrator to me. She did a good job with this book. I did not notice any technical glitches with the sound recording either. I requested this review copy audiobook and have voluntarily written this review.

Good murder mystery

A good murder mystery, where the beloved Maine Coon cat, Harry, helps solve the mystery. It takes place in a small town in the eastern U.S. where everybody knows your name and your business. You will come to suspect many of these people as Lynn’s niece and best friend set out to find the killer and motive.

I like to preface my reviews with the fact that I am a 68 year old female who reads mainly for pleasure although I love to do research in areas of personal interest which includes a wide range of topics from Ancient History to UFO's, and more.

"I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this honest review."

This is a Review of the Audiobook version:

I really loved the premise of the story line. Main Coon cats are some of the most beautiful cats I have ever seen.

The beginning of the story was very charming, magical and creative. However I soon ran into issues with the story itself.

Big issue was the fouling of the "crime scene" and even though this is a book that is fiction/fantasy, it just lacked a lot.

The characters didn't seem to really stand out to me, (except for Harry), and I forced myself to listen to the rest of the audiobook.

I hate to leave a neutral or negative review, but for me this story just lacked any real punch or excitement.


Author: Denise Brixey is an author I had never read or listened to and I doubt that I will do so again. This just wasn't my type of book.

Narrator: Beth A McIntosh is someone who I had never listened to and she has a nice voice but also just didn't really imbue this story with a real sense of presence for me.

I don't know that I would listen to another audiboook that she has done.

This is a story that anyone from the ages of 13 and above could enjoy.
