Synopsis
It's been quite a week for Joe Grey. First the large, powerfulfeline discovers that, through some strange, inexplicable phenomenon, he now has the ability to understand human language. Then he discovers he can speak it as well! It's a nightmare for a cat who'd prefer to sleep the day away carefree, but Joe can handle it. That is, until he has the misfortune to witness a murder in the alley behind Jolly's Deli - and worse, to be seen witnessing it. With all of his nine lives suddenly at risk, Joe's got no choice but to get to the bottom of the heinous crime - because his mouse-hunting days are over for good unless he can help bring a killer to justice., The charming first book in the delightfully cozy Joe Grey Cat Mystery series. Joe--a tomcat who is suddenly able to understand humans--is the sole witness to a murder in the quaint coastal village of Carmel-by-the-Sea and finds his relaxing days of curling up and catching mice are now on the line. He thought it was a perfect crime... the only witness was a cat. It's been quite a week for Joe Grey. First, the large, silver feline is alarmed to discover, when his owner yells at him to dispose of a mouse, that he can understand human language and even more shocking, that he can speak it as well! Then he has the misfortune to witness a murder in the alley behind Jolly's Deli--and worse, to be seen witnessing it. It's all a nightmare for a cat who would prefer to sleep the day away carefree. With his nine lives suddenly at risk, Joe has no choice but to get to the bottom of the heinous crime--because his mouse-hunting days are over for good unless he can help bring a killer to justice., It's been quite a week for Joe Grey.

- a***t (164)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseExcellent seller! Easy to deal with, service was great, package was carefully wrapped, item looks to have been cleaned up, better than described, value is better than expected, shipping was perfect. This item means a lot to me, as it is exactly like one my son's father owned that had been handed down to my son when his father passed. My son wore it all the time and, sadly, lost it while swimming. It was a pleasure to deal with this seller!
- m***2 (1186)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseExcellent seller! Shipping was slow to no fault of the seller - USPS sent package to Guam by accident. Ring packaged well and no had damage considering shipping issue. Ring was exactly as described for a good price.
- r***4 (111)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThis other Pokemon e-reader card I’ve received was super nice. The card was shipped in a plastic baggie, but hopefully the card is in good shape. It was also sandwiched between two pieces of cardboard, too. The shipping was fair. The card looked exactly like how it was pictured on the listing. I picked out this card alongside the other e-reader card, because I wanted to order them both together. It was worth the money I’ve spent. Another cool find, indeed. Great seller!! 😁👍🏻2003 Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire Version | Battle E-Card | Gentleman Nils ID 129-B001 (#276773675733)
