Amateur sleuths Jessie Harper and George Jenkins, of the Dale Street Private Investigations Agency, and Jessie’s companion, the mysterious talking cat Khan set off on another murder investigation in 1930's Liverpool, England.

Their old friend and mentor, Detective Sergeant Bill Roberts of the Liverpool City Police asks them to take on a cold case, a dockland murder with supernatural elements. They agree and start their own investigation just before the fifth anniversary of the murder on Christmas Eve.

Their suspect is Jack Crawley, a rough dock worker with a quick temper and a history of violence. As they approach him, he denies knowing anything about the murder, but his nervousness suggests otherwise.

Following Khan's lead, they investigate further and eventually uncover the truth behind the crime.

Good paranormal cozy mystery

Jessie Harper and George Jenkins run Dale Street Investigations in 1930’s Liverpool. The agency specializes in cases with supernatural elements, which makes sense because the humans are subject matter experts and Khan, the cat, can talk. They are asked by the Police to investigate a cold case of murders on the docks. The case gets very involved with a lot of paranormal activity. The narration is excellent. I received a free audiobook code for my honest review.

Khan's Christmas Capers

This second book in the series came together a bit better. There were still times when I felt the storyline rambled a I had a difficult time following what was going on.

Once again, the narration was pretty well done. I found myself getting used to the different pronunciations and nuances associated with the language of the time/place.

A Delightful Paranormal Cozy with a Festive Twist

Khan’s Christmas Capers is an entertaining blend of historical mystery, paranormal elements, and holiday charm. KJ Cornwall delivers a well-paced, atmospheric story set in 1930s Liverpool, where amateur sleuths Jessie Harper and George Jenkins—along with the enigmatic talking cat, Khan—tackle a chilling cold case just in time for Christmas.

The mystery is engaging, with just the right mix of intrigue and supernatural flair. Jack Crawley makes for a compelling suspect, and the investigation keeps a steady pace, leading to a satisfying conclusion. Khan, of course, steals the show with his clever insights and witty presence, adding a unique twist to the detective work.

Alan R. Gron’s narration suits the story well, bringing the historical setting and characters to life. While the mystery itself is solid, there were a few moments where the pacing felt a bit slow, but overall, it was an enjoyable and immersive listen.

If you love cozy mysteries with a touch of the paranormal, an old-fashioned detective vibe, and a festive setting, Khan’s Christmas Capers is a great pick for the holiday season!
