The fur starts flying when a gang from L.A. comes up to tranquil Molena Point, California, and begins breaking into the village’s quaint shops. The fur of Joe Grey, Feline P.I., that is. After all, Molena Point has been his home since he was a kitten eating scraps from the garbage behind the local delicatessen, and he doesn’t take well to marauding strangers. Joe even wonders whether the blonde … blonde who’s moved into next to his human companion Clyde could be a part of the gang––she’s been acting pretty suspicious lately. But when the strangers start trapping and caging feral cats––speaking cats like Joe and his girlfriend Dulcie––it proves too much for the intrepid four–footed detective. And when one of the gang is murdered, and a second mysterious death comes to light, he has no choice but to try to stop the crimes. Joe, Dulcie, and their tattercoat friend Kit, who used to be a stray herself, are deep into the investigation when they are able to release the three trapped cats. But as Kit leads them away to freedom, will she herself return to that wild life?

I absolutely adore these cats. So amusing. One of my favorite authors. A bit of magic with a good story. I so recommend!
I have read one or two others in this series and enjoyed the premise of the books. It is an interesting tale that crosses species – cat and human. It is a fantasy, but 9ne I enjoyed considering.
Have loved all the Joel Gray books, wish there were more. I read them as often as I had time
I really enjoy all of Murphy’s books, and this is no exception. Captivating storyline, believable and likable characters woven into a mystery that keeps the reader in suspense until the end. Would highly recommend.
Definitely a “cat lover” book to read. A fun read!
I love all the Joe Grey books!!!!!!!! Have read them all!
It wasn’t really easy reading. Lots of characters and hard to tie them together. Loved the cats though…
Love Joe gray (greatest cat detective) along with his Entourage read all her books, they are wonderful all the characters are the same they don’t have to be read in order just don’t read the something Montana in the devil then she really messes up on that one.
Love the whole series of these books.
Different story from the perspective of the cat. In this instance, a few of them actually talk, although only to a select few humans. Don’t want to spook the people into freaking out. Cats are four-footed detectives, and quite protective of their human, uh, partners (can’t call them owners, that does NOT work). Written well enough to suspend …
The book was good but seemed chopped in some areas.
Felt the author wrote to much details of what was going on
I don’t really like fantasy, but this book was enjoyable. Doubt if I’ll read any others.
I really enjoyed this, lots of action, will read more of this series.
Good read especially for animal lovers
Smart, talking cats and mystery, good entertainment.

Fun read
I loved the whole series.
