Synopsis

Nestled quietly on the Pacific Coast below San Francisco, Molena Point is a quaint hamlet—not the kind of place an escaped convict would choose for a hideout. But it just happens to be the home of a state's witness who put a thief named Cage Jones behind bars—until he broke out, that is. Wily tomcat Joe Grey senses trouble is on the way, but he never expected a federal officer would be shot or that two locals would be brutally murdered. With danger closing in, the feline detective, his girlfriend Dulcie, and their tattercoat friend Kit—an indomitable trio with special powers that only a few select humans are privy to—must put paws and whiskers together to capture a very nasty criminal before he strikes again.

Every time I pick up one of these books, I fall more in love with the cats. This time though Joe is very interested in the cases that are coming into the police but Dulcie is more worried about her Wilma getting back home. She feels like she is late and is worried about her. Joe keeps pushing off he......more

***Review for personal recollection and reflection only*** Women are turning up dead in Molena Point. These women had one thing in common: difficult marriages and possible spousal abuse. Joe Gray, Dulcie, and Kit are on the case, but then another case captures their attention: Wilma (Dulcie's human)......more

Goodreads review by Rebecca on February 21, 2020

Overall, good action & story line. But I think there was one huge error. Little bit of a spoiler here. AFTER Wilma’s car has been found IN her own garage, Clyde & Joe go to where she’d been to look for clues, & it says that “no one had seen her car yet, CHP was on the lookout for it”! Is that what’s......more
