What's the perfect read for fans of New York Times bestselling mystery authors Lilian Jackson Braun and Rita Mae Brown? This delightful ninth Joe Grey Mystery from award-winning author Shirley Rousseau Murphy.

Evil has crept into Molena Point, California, on stealthy cat feet. A rash of brazen burglaries, from antique jewelry to vintage cars, coincides with the unwelcome appearance of yellow-eyed Azrael, feline nemesis of crime-solving cats Joe Grey and Dulcie. But what follows soon after really has Joe's fur standing on edge. A young, healthy waiter drops dead at a reception for local artist Charlie Harper. And when the trail of big-time thefts leads up to San Francisco, the dark beast Azrael is on the scene. Does he have contact with a stalker and a handsome philanderer? If Joe and Dulcie don't get to the bottom of these misdeeds soon, they and all their human friends will have ample reasons to be afraidâ??very afraid.

It's time for the feline sleuths to start sniffing out the truth.… (altro)

Molena Point, California, located on the northern coast, a short drive from San Francisco. Lately it has been subject to a number of bold burglaries, antiques, art, jewellery and more. Could the re-appearance of Azrael, the black furred evil one, be behind it all.

Joe Grey and Dulcie, two felines with unusual talents, think so. What gets the investigation in gear is the death of a waiter during an art reception for Charlie Harper. The two cats notice that the Dark One is lurking. There is also the matter of the handsome philanderer and a stalker and how they tie in to it all.

When Azrael is around, there is an evil atmosphere and the definite possibility of something bad happening. This was a feeling that came up while reading the book when I read the scenes involving this character. A bit spooky, I'd say.

This may be cozy in some aspects, but I'd say there is a good dose of suspense too. ( )

This was one of the recommended authors when we took suggestions for future reading selections from the members of my library-sponsored mystery fiction reading group.

I've gotta say...I didn't really get into this one. It is competently written, but still at times seems amateurish. My main problem is the central conceit of this series -- intelligent, talking cats that interact with their human companions. I'm betting that if you can get past that outrageous premise, you'd probably enjoy this light mystery. Unfortunately, I never did get past that roadblock, so this was more an exercise in "getting to the end of the book so I can discuss it with the group."

I think I'll leave this series to the real fans. I didn't hate it, but I won't be reading any more Joel Grey novels! ( )
