When Marge Poole managed to get the world’s bestselling writer to come down to Hampton Cove for a reading at the local library, she never expected to become a prime suspect when the man is found murdered instead. Now it’s up to her daughter Odelia to track down the real killer, before the murder turns Marge into an outcast in the small town they call home. But when Odelia’s grandmother insists she join the hunt, things suddenly get a little… complicated.
Meanwhile, Odelia’s cats have some issues of their own to contend with. Like the fact that Dooley has become convinced that the apocalypse is about to happen any day now, or that Brutus has been acting very strange lately. And then there’s the fact that Max and his friends have been tasked by Odelia to lend aid and support in her murder investigation. Soon they’re ferreting out clues, interviewing witnesses and discovering some surprises of their own.
It's impossible to believe, but I swear this series gets more enjoyable and the feline characters more adorable with each new book. For example. in Purrfect Alibi alone, tough guy Brutus believes he's dying because of red spots on his chest and needs to be baptized, Max starts to think his owner's boyfriend is actually Jesus, and Dooley thinks the world will soon be coming to an end thanks to the Discovery Channel documentaries he's been watching. Oh, and let's not forget there's the murder of a famous author too, but for me that takes a back seat to the cats' crazy antics that left me giggling from beginning to end. I adored the introduction of a new kitty character as well, Big Mac, who plays a huge role in solving the mystery.
Summer reading season is upon us and this is a series that's best read from book 1 in order to follow the character development and mini soap opera among the cats. Download the entire Mysteries of Max series and treat yourself to one of the most adorable cat cozies available today. Purrsonally, I want to take little Dooley home with me. If you have read any of the Mysteries of Max books, I would love to know who your favorite kitty character is!
