About this listen

Hettie Bagshot has bitten off more than any cat could chew. As soon as she launches her No. 2 Feline Detective Agency, she's bucketed into a case: Furcross, a home for slightly older cats, has a nasty spate of bodysnatching, and three of the residents have been stolen from their graves.

Hettie and her sidekick, Tilly, set out to reveal the terrible truth. In a haze of catnip and pastry, Hettie steers the Furcross Case to its conclusion, but will she get there before the body count rises - and the pies sell out?

The enjoyable silliness

This was just a feel good story, very silly but lovely escapism. My only gripe is they’re not very long and I don’t think they’re worth a credit for just over 6 hrs of listening I wish there were more available in the audible plus catalogue. I listen while I am sewing, so I’ve finished the first one in a day 😞

Nice enough

All kinds of cats, shop keepers, plumbers, chef, bakers etc but apparently no police cats to investigate murders/suspicious deaths.
Odd story but didn't mind as it was free in the plus catalogue.

Brilliant narration!

At first I wasn’t sure what I was listening too, but bear with. I love cats, hence the download; but, at first, it was odd registering that the cats were wearing clothes, and acting as almost human. I almost switched off at a part that I’m sure you’ll also be a little whaaat??? Fortunately the story slowly envelopes you with a fabulous, and somewhat macabre, character building story, and the brilliant narration was the icing on the cake to make this a memorable listen.

Great

I was just adding random things to my library, not reading the reviews or descriptions.
So I hadn’t realised it was actual cats, silly I know.
Please do not tell my dogs that I’ve listened to this, and am going to listen to the rest.
The narrator is one of the best I’ve heard on here.

A DELIGHTFUL LISTEN

I could listen to Jenny Funnell read the phone book, she is outstanding. This set of books is an absolute FIND!! I absolutely love the utter silliness. The puns and names will make you smile. I wholeheartedly recommend. An absolute JOY!!

a pun filled easy listen

mostly this is a 'cosy mystery' with lots of puns and cat referances. it's quit enjoyable and whilst I wouldn't listwn again i might try the next one at some point.
some of the characterisations of none British cats come off as rather steriotyped, I'm not sure if that the writing or performance or mearly me being over sensative.
the ending was about 3 twists in the tail too long and if I'd been reading rather than listening while doing something else I'm not sure I would have had the patience.

Énjoyable and full of plot twists

This is has to be a cat lovers/murder mystery lovers dream. Light read for long train journeys or before bed. Loved it ! And will read the next one in the series - probably on my next long flight…

Surprised at how good this is

Downloaded this book as something in the background to doze off and tatt about to. Unfortunately got sucked in. Really engaging and fun storyline, with nice humorous gems. Now downloaded the rest of the series.

The characters in this story are extremely likeable

This book was very different from other cozy mysteries as it was from the viewpoint of two cats who run a detective agency. The book is a delight to listen to.
