About this listen

 Everyone thinks their cats are special—but Owen and Hercules have powers that go far beyond an adorable look or an irresistible purr. Along with their owner, librarian Kathleen Paulson, they have an uncanny instinct for solving crimes...

It's been raining cats and dogs in Mayville Heights. The small town's been deluged, and now the local artists' co-op is on the verge of flooding. Kathleen has been up all night helping her friends move their creations to the safety of the upstairs studio.

The artwork survives, but when controversial mask maker Jaeger Merrill is found drowned in the co-op basement, Kathleen questions whether the death was accidental. After she discovers the artist was using an assumed name, she realizes she can't actually assume anything about him. With the help of handsome detective Marcus Gordon—and her cats' extraordinary powers of detection—it's up to Kathleen to unmask a killer.

This is one of the best cat mysteries, solid writing, quirky small-town characters and excellent narration. I love the mystery surrounding the fabulous feline duo Hercules and Owen and hope to find out more about their origins as we go along.

Owen and Hercules rock!

I love all of the characters in this series and the fact that all of their lives and friendships are constantly evolving. Plenty of mystery too, and of course the fabulous relationship between Kathleen & her cats!

I know that Owen & Hercules are written as cats with magical powers, but as our 4 cats are frequently on the wrong side of a closed door, and 2 or more can always appear out of thin air whenever I'm feeding any other one of the 4 - Owen's & Hercules' powers really aren't hard to imagine at all!! 😺🐾

So enjoying this series
