Feline detectives confront a criminal pair in Molena Point

In Molena Point, California, Joe Grey and Dulcie face an unusual threat: a yellow-eyed tomcat and his human accomplice are carrying out robberies with a skill that puts feline involvement at risk of exposure. The case turns more dangerous when the thieves are linked to someone Joe knows and an innocent couple is found dead in a library garden. Built around deception, burglary, and murder, the mystery places its crime-solving cats in a race to identify the person behind the escalating crimes.
