The charming first book in the delightfully cozy Joe Grey Cat Mystery series. Joe—a tomcat who is suddenly able to understand humans—is the sole witness to a murder in the quaint coastal village of Carmel-by-the-Sea and finds his relaxing days of curling up and catching mice are now on the line. He thought it was a perfect crime… the only witness was a cat. It's been quite a week for Joe Grey.
