With Fluffy nudging her along, Ellie dives into the mystery behind the missing woman and the solitary sandal on the lakeshore—but can Ellie stay afloat long enough to crack the case—or will she end up in too deep?

KITTY: SWEETNESS AND SPICE AND ALL THINGS NICE, you know, soft kitty, purry kitty as Sheldon would say....Mmm Hmm read on to be educated into the world of this particular, butter wouldn't melt in your mouth, kitty. She knows what she wants, the fact that mummy is missing and financial foul play seems to be forthcoming is of no concern to her.

In this book there are surprises, excitement, mystery, some scary moments and it is all very entertaining. Leanne Leeds writes a good entertaining mystery, clean and suitable for all ages. Meghan Kelly really has a knack for animal voices and human alike.
RECOMMENDED CLEAN FUN MYSTERY.

The books in the series keep getting better!

I love this series by Leanne Leeds because it contains so many of my favorite things - cats, a cafe, strong independent women, magic and mysteries! In this book, a microchipped kitten (Fluffy) is found and Ellie is trying to return her to her owner, a local boutique owner and businesswoman. Unfortunately, Ellie and her friends are having no luck reuniting the kitten to the her mom, who seems to have disappeared from her lakeside mansion. The amateur sleuths persevere and find themselves in some dangerous situations. The narration by Meghan Kelly is absolutely wonderful. Her ability to create unique voices for all the characters and animals is incredible. Her performance provides the perfect voice, inflection and attitude when needed and brings the story to the next level. There are not enough superlatives to describe Ms. Kelly’s performance. I received a free audiobook code for my honest review.

Awesome

What a great listen. This drew me in immediately and kept me listening. What a twisted plot , and the perpetrator wasn't afraid to leave bodies behind all in the name of selfishness and greed without a care for anyone else. Diabolic! Eleanor's natural nosiness helped solve the crimes, and poor Logan gets dragged along for support. Lol. Amazing. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest opinion. Meghan did an exceptional job with voices (and I commend her efforts) that greatly added to my enjoyment of the characters and storyline. I recommend this book.

Intriguing, exciting, entertaining, PERFECT!

When an adorable Scottish Fold kitten is found dirty and bedraggled, with a chewed flip flop clutched in her teeth, Ellie, Landon, and the extended Silver Cat Rescue family have NO idea of the far reaching conspiracy afoot in “Fluffy, Flip Flops, and Foul Play: Silver Circle Cat Rescue Mysteries, Book 7”! This one gets tense, beautifully so, with a clever, involved, delightfully intriguing plot that sees our amateur detectives chasing leads and dodging the nefarious at a breakneck pace! The characters created to make this story work, and good lawd does it work, are plentiful, varied, imaginative and span the full spectrum from quirky “I love ‘em” to “how qwik can I get me a permit” nefarious GOLD! They are all fully defined and not only interacted with each other, but were also “integrated” seamlessly into the world of our series regulars, so much so that a few could even become recurring or new regulars! Our existing series regulars continue to grow and evolve, as do their relationships, beautifully, naturally and realistically! I love how their lives intertwine both with the shelter, and with each other! I love how they deal with challenges, and face real life issues like WE face! I particularly love how our author is able to realistically and sensitively incorporate these issues and challenges into the story in a “fit for all manner”! I know I am being a bit, well vague, but I don’t want to give away plot details and ruin anything for future listeners! On to the performance… The narration bringing the authors vision to life is first rate performance perfection! The voices chosen so perfectly fit the characters, that they bring a PERFECT picture alive in my mind! Fluffy melted my heart! There is another character I can’t name here (as it would be a huge spoiler), that brought me to tears at one point! I have no doubt you’ll know WHO when you get there, AND you’ll be reaching for a tissue! Another biggie … I loved that as certain characters “evolved”, subtle vocal nuances indicated that evolution, making the change not only crystal clear, but giving that eye opening “ah ha” moment intended by the author! THIS is what clear, convincing narration is all about, and I loved it! I loved the story, I loved the performance, I loved it ALL! Five fantastic stars!

Exciting!

What a fun story to listen too! When you have cars standing on a magic platter and speaking English to humans, you know this was fun. Ellie and Landon were hot on the trail of some bad guys, they found themselves cornered.
Meghan Kelly is a master narrator! She makes the story that much more interesting. I love how Meghan can do all the voices of the characters, including males. It made for an exciting listen.

Love this Series!

This series keeps getting better with each book. This mystery starts with a cute kitten named Fluffy being found with a flip flop in her mouth and her microchip pointing to her owner.  As Ellie and the crew start the search for her owner, they are finding out a lot about her, but not actually finding her.  I liked that Landon was with Ellie during her investigation in this book instead of at home asking her how the search was going.  I love the close-knit group of friends and family in these books and how they all help to try and solve the mysteries.  As always, there was a lot going on in this mystery and Ellie and Landon found themselves in a few dangerous situations.  I really loved this book and look forward to the next one.  Meghan Kelly is a wonderful narrator and is the reason I started listening to this series.  Her voice is perfect and gives a different voice to each character that fits their personality.  She makes listening to the book very enjoyable.

Sibling Rivalry

Fluffy and Floofy are precious in this book by Leanne Leeds. I so enjoy the series and think the narrator does a spectacular job at bringing the characters to life with her voice. I could hear exactly who was speaking and visualize so many details. Meghan Kelly was exceptionally talented at giving the kittens the right attitude.

Tiny siblings and murder mystery

An adorable little kitten carrying a flip flop is discovered on a beach at the start of the tale. She has a chip, but Ellie is unable to return her because her owner has vanished without explanation. Since mystery and murder solving is Ellies and her crew main entertainment in life, they begin to investigate. Despite the adorable kitten's early age, they attempt to use the magic platter to obtain information regarding her owner's absence. Then it just up to them to investigate since police does not rush to get involved. Later it appears that this kitten had a sibling, and they had their own drama.

The book is fascinating and enjoyable all around. Meghan did a fantastic job giving each character a voice and a distinct personality, even the small ones.
