In it, Harry, her inquisitive tabby cat Mrs. Murphy, chubby cat Pewter and loyal corgi Tee Tucker stumble into a spooky Halloween murder mystery.

I didn't get far in this one before giving up. This novel fits the subgenre of "cozy mystery" which I'm not very fond of. Basically, the kind of mystery that could fit a network movie of the week or series without anything graphic or too dark, and an amateur sleuth who finds so much murder landing a...
After the last couple of books in the series, I was not really expecting much when I read this installment. I was very pleased to discover that this book was more like the first books in the series than the recent ones. I found there was a bit to much brand-name dropping, as though the author want...

Though the topical aspect of this mystery was woven better into the lives of the character...

As a graduate of one, I am in favour of anything that highlights smaller colleges and universities.If you read just a few of the Mrs....
This installment was closer to the earlier books in the series, in that there was much less over-the-head imparting of the author's political opinion in the book. I get that the author has an alternative lifestyle and she campaigns for acceptance, but I really don't need to be beat over the head wi...
