Summary
From the award-winning author of the USA TODAY best-selling Mystic Notch series...
"Talk about inconvenient. Not only did I have a dilapidated mansion and no money to repair it with, two cats I had no idea how to care for, and a room full of cranky guests waiting for their breakfast, I also had a dead body on my hands."
Josie Waters has to admit she may have acted a bit hastily when she agreed to purchase the Oyster Cove Guesthouse - a charmingly gabled Victorian mansion on the breathtaking Maine coast - from elderly family friend Millie Sullivan. But Josie was desperate to flee Ohio and in particular her ex-husband, a chef who loved his job so much he left her for it. And anyway, how hard can running a guesthouse be?
The truth is, Oyster Cove Guesthouse is a moldering money pit with falling-in roof and a cohort of regular guests who are as mischievous as a litter of kittens. And Millie keeps dropping by to dispense unasked-for advice. And Josie might have made a mistake in promising to adopt Oyster Cove’s two resident cats Nero and Marlowe, and treat them in the manner to which they’ve become accustomed. Josie has never had a cat before...let alone two feisty felines who think they own the place.
Okay, it’s not going well. At least it can’t get any worse, Josie thinks. Until her first guest ends up dead.
A joy to listen to, with a twist you’ll never guess! A new mystery series from a best-selling author, purrfect for murder mystery fans, cat lovers, and everyone in between.
Listeners can’t get enough of Leighann Dobbs!

I listened to it because I’d paid for it.
The details of the book sounded ok so I bought it. I found it an average plot, and average characters. The narration annoyed me. I felt it was rushed and my husband, who could hear me playing it, said it was boring and narrator mostly drones on.
The whiny voices and the constant meowing of the cats annoyed me. After the culprit was revealed I thought, oh good it’s ended, and then it went on another chapter or so with general chat and dissection that was unnecessary. I doubt I’ll buy another by this author or narrator. This is just my taste and opinion though.

Nice tidy mystery with just the right amount of "catdom". Not totally predictable..and therefore refreshing.

Boring and Annoying
This is my 1st review ever. But oh my, the story line was boring and the cat voices and other character voicing was down right annoying. I made myself finish it-total waste of time.

Wrong reader for this book
I tried twice to get through this book, but the reader is the wrong person. You need a more mature reader since the subject is in her 40’s. Also, I felt like someone was reading a story, rather than performing.
I love This author, and have listened to all the others.

Disappointed
I read everything she writes but this time I bought the book in Audible form. The story seemed to drag and the Audible reader was extremely boring. There was no enthusiasm or personality to the reading, it creates a scene that was boring and mundane. Leigh Ann Dobbs is a great writer and her story deserved more than this.

Maybe it was the narrator?
The narration was just plan bad... tempo, exaggerated emotion, horrible voices. I am normally a big Donna fan... maybe if I read it I would have liked it a bit better... but this just isn’t up to her usual standard.

Love The Cats!!!
Loved to concept and ALL THE CATS. Story to long and the people often boring . Most memorable moment was when ALL the Cats got together and made their plan. Liz Brand is an amazing full spectrum narrator...one of The Best I've ever heard. I have loved all of Ms. Dobbs stories. Am hopping the next one in this new series is back up to her quality of writing.

Liked the story's premise,
I liked the main concept, but I wished the main character sleuthed rather than others do it for her.
