Cat Breaking Free (Joe Grey)

A complex, well-crafted plot and lively, credible characters will leave fans purring with pleasure.

-- "Publishers Weekly"

If a cat really could speak, one imagines that he would speak in the sardonic, superior tone that Dufris uses for Joe. The humans are well done too; all are portrayed with nuances and subtleties that enhance the story. Fans of the series will delight in Dufris' layered performance.

-- "AudioFile"

An intriguing whodunit.

-- "Booklist"

Innovative and well-crafted, Murphy's latest is as much as mystery as it is a testament to the friendship between feline and man. The feline characters are as well-developed as the human characters, conferring the novel with a special flair.

The fur starts flying when a gang from LA comes up to tranquil Molena Point, California, and begins breaking into the village's quaint shops. Joe Grey, feline PI, has called Molena Point home since he was a kitten, and he doesn't take well to marauding strangers. Joe even wonders whether the blonde who's moved in next to his human companion Clyde could be a part of the gang-she's been acting pretty suspicious lately. But when the strangers start trapping and caging feral cats it proves too much for Grey. And when one of the gang is murdered, and a second mysterious death comes to light, he has no choice but to try and stop the crimes.
