A review by annarella
The Cat and the Pendulum (The No. 2 Feline Detective Agency, Book 10) by Mandy Morton
5.0
I was looking forward to read this book, I love Hettie and Tilly and their adventures are always a compelling and highly entertaining read.
This one is a bit darker and it deals with serious issues like memories, respect for the victims, and how tourism can exploit historical tragedy.
There's a lot of books about serial killer and there's a lot of books about Jack the Ripper. Most of the time there's a sort of morbit fascination with the killer and the victims are often forgotten.
That said there's a matrioska of mysteries and the plot flows as they're all solid. Hettie and Tilly are as lovely as usual and I loved Agatha Crispy.
I missed the usual cast of characters but this one features some very interesting cats.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
