A Second Chance Cat Mystery, Book 9

By: Sofie Ryan

Narrated by: Rachel L. Jacobs

Secondhand store owner Sarah Grayson and her inquisitive rescue cat, Elvis, will need to close the book on a killer in the newest installment of this charming New York Times best-selling series.

Although Sarah Grayson is often tending to the contained chaos of her delightful secondhand store in North Harbor, Maine, plus dealing with the quirky personality of her rescue cat, Elvis, she still takes an occasional night off. But her evening out comes to an abrupt end when Sarah discovers Stella Hall, a member of the library board, standing over a body in the street.

Although Stella admits that she and the victim had fought about several things including library funding, she is adamant that she is innocent and the real killer is on the loose. Sarah is eager to help, but even with the assistance of Charlotte's Angels, the senior citizen detectives who rent out part of her shop, there is still a vast amount of circumstantial evidence linking Stella to the crime. The odds may be stacked against them, but Sarah and Elvis, along with the Angels, will work hard to check out the suspects and catch a killer.

Interesting installment

This plot was very interesting and had good character development. Am not too fond of the new narrator’s voices for some characters, especially Luz and Rose.

Pawstruck

I love this series and was super excited when this one came out. Once again Sophie Ryan did an amazing job at entertaining me. The only flaw was the narrator. It was not her fault but all the other stories were done by someone else and Rachel Jacobs has a sweet younger voice and hasn’t honed enough variation of characters to determine who they are. Please get the original narrator back for any upcoming books in this series.

The story was great but what was with they typos/misspeaking

The story was a great continuation of the characters I have grown to love! I just wish this reader knew that it’s Mr. P and not Mrs.P, finger prints over finger tips. Idk if it was a typo in her source material or a misspeak but it jarred me a bit. I don’t usually have those kinds of issues… I consume a lot of audio books.

I highly recommend this story and even this reader. I would like to see the mistakes updated, though.

The cats antics.

The whole story is just so good. The story kept going on and kept my interest.

Love the series, however...

A very unfortunate change of narrator, the character voices are all wrong. You'd think a new narrator would try to keep the established voices as close as possible to the original narrstor.
