This was a very light read, and I was a bit surprised that the story kept me sufficiently engaged to finish the book. I won't bother looking for any others in the series though. It is a very G-rated mystery, so it might be just the ticket if you're looking for something recommend to your aged friends or relatives, assuming they aren't too critical about what they read and that they think most modern mystery novels are too violent, or have too much swearing and sex. It reads like a very conservative TV show. I found the treatment of the one gay character offensive - very stereotypical, and when it's indicated that he may have found a romantic interest, the straight characters comment that the couple will have to be very discreet. It's 2015, folks! I'm sure this series has an audience but I don't think it's me. p.s. the cat was one of the better-written characters, and I liked him.
