Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Continued collaboration between Brown and her cat, as series hero Mrs. Murphy (also a feline) must solve the murder of a biker and the theft of $30 million from local banks.
Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc.

From Library Journal

Once again murder and mayhem have come to Brown's (Wish You Were Here, LJ 11/1/90) sleepy little town of Crozet, Virginia, heralded by the arrival of a leather-clad biker who storms up to historic Ash Lawn (James Monroe's home) demanding to see the "thieving slut" Malibu and upsetting the docents. Later, when the biker's body is found in Sugar Hollow, postmistress/detective Harry Haristeen, accompanied by the incorrigible cat Mrs. Murphy and Welsh corgi Tee Tucker, finds herself in the middle of the investigation. A computer virus that threatens the local bank and two love triangles are only some of the complications that spice up the plot. For fans and those who dote on cute, cozy mysteries, this is the ticket.

5.0 out of 5 stars I feel at home in Crozet!, Jan 25 2003
By Ellen Thorp (Houston, TX United States) - See all my reviews
I absolutely love Rita Mae Brown's characters! I have approximately three more to read and I will have read all she has out at present. Through reading her Mrs. Murphy Mysteries, I have a very vivid appearance of each and every character in Crozet. They're family! Mrs. Murphy, Tucker and Pewter are like my two cats and one dog. Pay Dirt is a wonderful mystery as are all of her stories. I just can't get enough!

4.0 out of 5 stars Cute..., May 28 2002
By Miss D. AwesomePants "Amazon Junkie" (Hoboken, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
The 4th book in this series... again, proves to be a cute read.
Mrs. Murphy and Tee Tucker return with Harry to solve a murder. This book brings the return of Blair, Harry's possible romance, and develops a lot of the character relationships more.
I will be reading more in the series... (i think it's on #10 now!)
Very cute, easy read.

1.0 out of 5 stars Which remote back alley did you say Murphy is from?, Sep 28 2001
By A Customer
To really enjoy Rita's Mrs. Murphy mystery series one must first get past the utter nonsense which constitutes both the "Introduction" at the beginning of each novel and the page at each novel's conclusion where "Sneaky Pie" tries to pawn her tie-in merchandise. Then once into the body of the novel itself one has to get past Rita's rather sloppy use of law enforcement terminology and her even sloppier descriptions of law enforcement procedures.

Blair Bainbridge is the only three dimensional character in this entire novel and he isn't even mentioned in the "Cast of Characters" (which is odd considering he is one of the regulars). At least with this novel the crime being committed is a white collar crime. These are the only two things in its favor.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic
I don't care if the animals talk or not, they are still a very good part of the story. I like the fact that they are totally loyal to Harry, and care so much about her. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Good fun! (But get the possum out of the barn!!!)
I have to confess -- I figured out "who done it" almost as soon as the first murder victim was introduced, and never really worried about the resolution of the crime. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars where were the animals this time around?
Mrs. Murphy needs her trusty terrier companion, and their mom needs them both. I really missed the animal interaction in this book. Read more
