A review by alittlemixofvix
The Cat and the Pendulum (The No. 2 Feline Detective Agency, Book 10) by Mandy Morton
4.0
3.5 rounded to 4 for Goodreads. An amusing and light read with a twist of mystery - it was great returning to The No.2 Feline Detective Agency. I also really like the cover art that's on these later books.
I enjoyed all the "cat-ities" sprinkled throughout the story as it helps me picture the cast as cats rather than people. The story started to evolve and included a lot more elements than I initially expected which was a pleasant surprise.
I did find this one slower to start than previous books in the series - usually the action starts quite early on. Also, it's a catch 22 as I found there was too much recap at the start (as I already knew Hettie and Tilly), but could see that it may not be enough backstory to those reading as a standalone.
Overall, a cute and lighthearted read for those that like cosy mysteries and cats!
