Publisher Description
What do steeplechase, playing cards and daggers have in common? They all play vital roles in the intricately woven plot of Sneaky Pie and her human cohort Rita Mae Brown in this delightful mystery. While Mary "Harry" Haristeen and her cat, Mrs. Murphy attend the annual steeplechase at Montpelier, Mrs. Murphy discovers something amiss. During the celebration following the race, one of the jockeys is found dead in the barn, a dagger through his heart and the queen of clubs impaled by the dagger. Hot on the killer's trail, Mrs. Murphy is joined by a wistful band of barn mice when the killer strikes again. But can she make her human partner understand before yet another life is lost? Acclaimed across the globe, this mystery series is a perennial fan favorite.

"Still in love with these books and have found that you can read these books out of order. In my next life I want to come back as one of Harry's cats. These books are all quick, fun reads."

Murder, She Meowed Listener Reviews

" Light read, easily solved. Once in awhile that's just what you want! "
— Sandy, 2/4/2014 -
" This was given to me by someone who loves animals and knows I love them. She enjoys these books so along the same lines, thought I would too. And I was excited by her enthusiasm for the series. Well, I enjoyed the book for what it was - simple, afternoon read. I kept thinking it must have been written for young adults as she explains things that I don't think most adults would need explained. The mystery isn't much of a mystery. The animals talking and working on the mystery was cute, but didn't add that much to the story overall. I doubt I'll be searching out any more of these books. "
