    About this audiobook

    Normally, the arrival of an art exhibition at the Mayville Heights library would be cause for celebration. But thanks to the overbearing curator and high-tech security system that comes with it, Kathleen's life has been completely disrupted. Even Owen and Hercules have been affected, since their favorite human doesn't seem to have a spare moment to make their favorite fish crackers or listen to Barry Manilow.

    But when Kathleen stops by the library late one night and finds the curator sprawled on the floor-and the exhibition's most valuable sketch missing-it's suddenly time to canvass a crime scene. Now Kathleen, her detective boyfriend Marcus, and her clever cats have to sniff out a murderous thief, before anyone else has a brush with death.

      An adolescent shriek woke her. Cockerels, she thought, cockerels, with a wry twist to the word. She lay in the dark listening. There was no use in covering her head; the screaming still came through. The soloist was suddenly submerged in the chorus.

      This is an example of a great cozy mystery series that makes the 'cute' factor work for it, instead of against it. Owen and Hercules are definitely cats with magical gifts: there's no possibility of logical explanations when you have cats that can do what they can do. But the author never takes it further, never tries to expand on the whys and wherefores; that might drive some readers nuts, but I like it and I think it's more authentic. Aside from the cat magic, the rest of the book is firmly rooted on terra firma. A hardworking MC with two hardworking best friends, a spectacular love interest who is spectacular because of his flaws instead of in spite of them, and an incredibly well plotted mystery with a fairly reasonable ending and no TSTL moments. The writing is solid and always keeps me coming back for more. I deducted 1/2 star because there were an overly large number of missing articles (especially 'a') throughout the copy and because I think the author started exploring something a bit with Gavin (not a love triangle) and it sort of fizzled mid-way, as though she lost control of it so just dropped it. I'm just as glad she did really, but it did feel a bit unfinished. Definitely a series I'm sticking with.

      Another great entry in the series, the characters are always the strong point in this series but the mystery this time was one of the best, with two non-conspiring criminals it was harder to come up with who committed the crime. So glad I have a few more of these to read before I'm caught up with the series.

      The magical cats are a bit out of sorts when most of Kathleen’s attention is taken up by a murder that occurs in her library. Someone killed the person in charge of an art exhibit and a valuable sketch was missing. Kathleen’s library is then declared a crime scene and is off limits until the police finish with it. Much happens in this cute cozy to make it an interesting and entertaining tale. The enjoyment comes not only from solving the mystery but also from the reading about the lives of the continuing characters.
