Something Whiskered

Cat in the Stacks Mystery, Book 17

De: Miranda James

Narrado por: Erin Bennett

A dead baron, an Irish castle, and an unexpected ghost....

Charlie Harris, Helen Louise Brady, and their feline friend Diesel find themselves hot on the trail of a conniving killer in this delightful Cat in the Stacks Mystery from New York Times bestselling author Miranda James.

Charlie Harris and his wife, Helen Louise Brady, have arrived in Ireland for their honeymoon. After a few days in Dublin, they head to County Clare, ancestral home to Helen Louise's extended family, the O'Bradys. Her cousin Lorcan runs Castle O'Brady as a bed-and-breakfast with his wife Caoimhe and their daughter and son-in-law. But upon arrival at the castle, the newlyweds are shocked to see a body falling from the roof.

The dead man is centenarian Finn, Baron O'Brady, Lorcan's grandfather, which means that Lorcan now becomes the new Baron O'Brady. Was someone in a hurry for Lorcan to assume the title and ownership of the estate? Or is there another reason for wanting Finn dead? And why is a ghostly cat making an appearance in their room—is he trying to warn them? Charlie and Helen Louise must answer these questions and more as they realize the local garda can't solve the crime alone. And, along with Diesel, they will have to investigate themselves or risk something wicked coming their way.

Another enjoyable book in the series

Absolutely love this series and the characters! This one was a little different since they were in Ireland but I really enjoyed it!

Another wonderful Cat in the Stacks cozy mystery

I really enjoyed Something Whiskered by Miranda James. Charlie and Helen Louise, now married, are having a three week honeymoon in Ireland. Of course they brought Diesel also. Helen Louise is a cousin to the family they’re staying with. Of course there is a murder, actually two. I won’t give anything away. The author’s descriptions are fantastic and I can picture the places in Ireland, the castle where Charlie, Helen Louise and Diesel stayed in addition to where they went sightseeing.
This is another great book in the series and it was a nice change from Charlie’s hometown and the many murders he’s helped solve there. I love Erin Bennett, she is a fantastic narrator. Now I can’t wait for the next audiobook in the series!

Loved it

Miranda James has done it again with the latest addition in her Cat in the Stacks series. All the characters we’ve grown to know and love are present and accounted for with a tempting mystery to solve.
Erin Bennett gave a stellar performance as she breathed life into the storyline and gave each character their own distinct voice.
I highly recommend this book and series to cozy mystery fans and look forward to the next in this wonderful series.

Great to locate story in Ireland

Like that story unfolds with many possibilities and several people who focus on resolving the crimes. So refreshing to NOT have a contentious relationship between stars of the story and the police. Like the twists and mystery story takes. Great read overall!

It was ok

I had a bit of a hard time with this one. I thought the story took a long time to get somewhere. Narrator is good as always.

another great addition to the series

I loved pretty much everything about this book. the narrator did a really good job. the story was very complex and entertaining and I enjoy how it ended.
