Pawing Through the Past

In this warm-hearted puzzler, "Mary Minor Harry" Haristeen is preparing for her 20th high school reunion when trouble comes to the seemingly sleepy town of Crozet, Virginia. It all begins when classmates receive anonymous letters with a simple message: "You'll never get old." Some take the note as a compliment, others think it's a harmless practical joke. But when the class womanizer turns up dead, the message suddenly has a far more sinister meaning. Can Mrs. Murphy, Harry's sleuthing cat, sniff out the killer? Listeners will delight as Mrs. Murphy, with assistance from her four-legged companions Pewter the cat and Tee Tucker the Welsh corgi, scratch through the clues. Kate Forbes' charming narration captures the unique spirit of each character, whether human, feline, or canine.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Brown's appealing sense of humor, well-constructed setting and competent plotting carry the day. Her talking, thinking animals are funny and, for those who like this sort of thing, even adorable." (Publishers Weekly)

The characters

I liked the variety of voices the reader gave each character! The reader was outstanding!

Always a good story

I’m listening to this series a second time through. Enjoy it for a casual listen while doing chores!

Love this series!

I love the ‘kids’!! I love all the main characters and their love and loyalty to each other. The mystery always keeps me guessing. I am starting the next book right now. I love Rita Mae Brown and her stories! She in herself is just an awesome human being! I look forward to learning more about her and reading more of her books. Thank you Rita Mae Brown and thank you Audible!! And oh my goodness I have to mention Kate Forbes!! She is wonderful!!

another great read in the Mrs Murphy series

as always a highly enjoyable read decent. interesting plot and the books in the series just keep getting better

One of the best Mrs Murphy mysteries!

I am a big fan of this series by Rita Mae Brown. This story and book in particular was one of my favorites. It was suspenseful until the very end and it keeps the reader engaged in "whodunnit?" mode. I was so engrossed all the way and would rewind and listen in case I missed some details. Kate Forbes is a marvelous narrator and the only one I like for this series!
