Book Reviews of Cat's Eyewitness (Mrs. Murphy Mysteries)

Book Review: Only if you like serious drama and hardly any mystery...
Summary: 1 Stars

This book was just awful. I was suggested this series by 2 family members so I had high hopes for it. Unfortunately, it was blatantly obvious who the murderer was from the beginning, and perhaps only 4 chapters even discussed the murder, while the rest of it consists of, "my husband is cheating on me *whine whine whine*" "nahh, giiiirl, I would know since my ex-husband soon to be husband again slept with our dear friend BoomBoom, nick-named after her large bosoms who, by the way, is now in love with our 60 year old, Angelica, a former actress who is so much more beautiful than meeee". If you like unnecessary women drama, talk about who the town slut is, who isn't, and Monks who own computers and use them for their business, get drunk, smoke, and do drugs in the mountains, then, please, by my guest and purchase this book. If you want a GOOD mystery book with fun characters try Melinda Wells, Maggie Sefton, or Lorna Barrett.

Summary of Cat's Eyewitness (Mrs. Murphy Mysteries)

It's no secret that cats are a mystery writer's best friend. Just ask the bestselling team of Rita Mae Brown and her furry partner, Sneaky Pie Brown, back on the prowl with another unforgettable whodunit. This time a controversial miracle in Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains sparks religious fervor-and a suspicious death. Now the indefatigable felines Mrs. Murphy and Pewter, along with the dogged corgi Tee Tucker, must trust their animal instincts to sniff out the worst of human nature....

With the holidays approaching, Mary Minor "Harry" Haristeen and her best friend, Susan Tucker, take a much-needed time-out at the mountain monastery of Mount Carmel. There, under the benevolent gaze of the statue of the Virgin Mary, their worldly worries are soon overshadowed. For in front of their very eyes the statue begins to cry tears of blood.

Legend has it that Mary's crimson tears are harbingers of crises. And though skeptical, the ever-practical Harry can already see one on the horizon. If leaked, news of the so-called miracle could turn the monastery and the town of Crozet into a circus. What Harry doesn't foresee is murder..

When Susan's great-uncle Thomas, a resident monk, is found frozen to death at the base of the statue, foul play is ruled out-at first. But at Harry's urging, the body is exhumed for an autopsy. There's just one problem: the coffin is empty. That's when Mrs. Murphy, Pewter, and Tucker get involved. Then there's the shocking revelation of a mystery that has perplexed the citizens of Crozet for ages.

With Christmas around the corner and the monastery overrun by the faithful, all Harry's meddling menagerie can do is stay on her trail as she jumps knee-deep into an unofficial investigation-one that becomes more dangerous when another Crozet citizen meets an untimely demise. In this case it will be a miracle if Harry stays alive....
