Murphy's 11th Joe Grey cat cozy (after
Cat Cross Their Graves) offers the usual winning blend of suspense and whimsy. A feral cat, a mauled and very dead motorcyclist in a ravine and a series of boutique robberies bode ill for Joe's human companion, Clyde Damen; Clyde's feisty new building contractor girlfriend, Ryan Flannery; and the other residents of scenic Molena Point, Calif. It's largely up to those incorrigible feline snoops and snitches—Joe and buddies Dulcie and Kit, who cavort over the rooftops at night and eat the best of restaurant food—to thwart a gang of thieves from Los Angeles hiding out in the nearby hills. A complex, well-crafted plot and lively, credible characters will leave fans purring with pleasure.

Joe Gray, feline P.I., is a descendant of Celtic cats who can speak in a human voice. Joe speaks mostly to his human companion, Clyde. When break-ins start in their California town, Joe and his feline friends are on the job to find the culprits. William Dufris crafts voices that fit this story by showing respect for and insight into the characters. If a cat really could speak, one imagines that he would speak in the sardonic, superior tone that Dufris uses for Joe. The humans are well done too; all are portrayed with nuances and subtleties that enhance the story. Fans of the series will delight in Dufris's layered performance.
