Mimi Lee Gets a Clue

A Sassy Cat Mystery, Book 1

By: Jennifer J. Chow

Narrated by: Natalie Naudus

Mimi Lee is in over her head. There's her new Los Angeles pet grooming shop to run, her matchmaking mother to thwart, her talking cat Marshmallow to tend to - oh, and the murder of a local breeder to solve...now if only Mimi hadn’t landed herself on top of the suspect list.

Mimi Lee hoped to give Los Angeles animal lovers something to talk about with her pet grooming shop, Hollywoof. She never imagined that the first cat she said hello to would talk back, or be quite so, well, catty - especially about those disastrous dates Mimi’s mother keeps setting up.

When Marshmallow exposes local breeder Russ Nolan for mistreating Chihuahuas, Mimi steals some of her cat’s attitude to tell Russ off. The next day, the police show up at Hollywoof. Russ has been found dead, and Mimi’s shouting match with him has secured her top billing as the main suspect.

Hoping to clear her name and save the pups Russ left behind, Mimi enlists help from her dreamy lawyer neighbor, Josh. But even with Josh on board, it’ll take Mimi and Marshmallow a lot of sleuthing - and more than a little sass - to get back to the pet-grooming life...and off the murder scene.

Loved it!

This is the start of another wonderful series with a great cat and wonderful puppies.

Talking cat

Just liked this book a lot. Thought it was fun and enjoyable. Thr beginning, middle and ending we're good and it summed up very well. Thr story didn't get too out of hand with the talking cat and was an enjoyable read.

Marshmallow

Loved Marshmallow. Hope more books are in the future. Also Mimi’s mother adds to the story.

Both Laugh Out Loud & Good Cozy Mystery

Here’s all you need to know about “Mimi Lee Gets a Clue,” - every minute until the next one comes out is too long. Jennifer Chow has written engaging characters that are immediately identifiable. Mimi, her family, and fabulous Marshmallow are crafted with layers and all sorts of options for interesting future stories. I’m genuinely hopeful that at some point there is a day-in-the-life short story just from the POV of Mimi’s mom. And, obviously, the more time spent with Marshmallow the better.

In case you worry about these things like I do, the narrator is perfectly matched to the book.

This is my favorite listen of the year so far!

Found a New Favorite

Not only did I enjoy the story but the narrator as well. The talking cat is genius and his aiding our heroine by gathering information from the other animals to help solve the mystery and using his charm to get potential suspects to talk was great. I’m looking forward to the rest of this series.
