How many loyal confidants do you have in your life WHO truly listen to you? If you've ever been afraid a truth couldn't be told because of the high cost attached to it, did you feel as mute as a cat? How do you suppose one gets the words out when one thinks like a person but processes life as a cat? Enter First Person Cat, a personal story told by Tiffany, an intuitive tortoise shell Persian who was born knowing. Yet even thought Tiffany seems to smell the culprit's thoughts, by what creative methods can she expose THE PERSON WHO murdered her (human) mommy, a famous rock and roll star, and the killer's plan for his next victim? Murderer, watch out. Combining ingenuity, a whole lot of attitude, and natural born talents, Tiffany makes it her job to see that justice prevails. She hooks up with a detective on the Beverly Hills police force, wraps her charms around him, and sure enough, Tiffany is the leader in avenging her mommy's death.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MURDER MYSTERY THAT CELEBRATES THE SPECIAL BOND BETWEEN CATS & THEIR HUMANS, November 17, 2009

This review is from: First Person Cat (Hardcover)

"First Person Cat" is a great book for cat lovers and anyone who loves a good mystery. I love how author Jacque Heebner created Tiffany, the Tortoise Shell Persian cat, a feline so sweet, shrewd, and loyal to her human "mom" that I was unable to put the book down until I finished the last page. "First Person Cat" has it all; mystery, intrigue, beautiful people, traitors, and heroes. If you ever talk to your cat, this is the book for you. It's a good book for an evening at home. I love murder mysteries and this book has all the elements, including a cat determined to solve the mystery of who killed her owner. The book is filled with details that bring "First Person Cat" to life and I recommend it to anyone who loves cats or just a great book.

What could be more ingenuous than a muder mystery written by and solved by a pampered Beverly Hills kitty? Tiffany, a gorgeous tortoise shell Persian, has nine lives and a thousand senses. Don't try to put anything over on her! She's sweet, loving, opinionated and loves the good life to which her human mommy has accustomed her. When her mommy is murdered, it's Tiffany who knows the truth and points out the clues. The fascinating cat world is a big part of this adorable book that is impossible to put down. It will make you both smile and laugh. A joy for cat lovers and mystery lovers of all ages.

4.0 out of 5 stars Murder Mystery Written by a Cat- A Beverly Hills Persian that Wears Diamond Necklaces from Rodeo Drive, November 15, 2009

By 

Brian Cowan (Beverly Hills) - See all my reviews

This review is from: First Person Cat (Hardcover)

A Murder Mystery Written by a Cat? A Beverly Hills tortoise shell Persian that wears diamond necklaces from Rodeo Drive and solves the murder of her rock star Owner? I was intrigued. I manged to receive an advanced reader copy of this hard cover book from the publisher. I love murder mysteries and this did not disappoint. Although I am not a cat owner, I found myself totally immersed in the life of this little bitch of a feline and her point of view on the humans around her. It is a quick read- just over 200 pages. I polished it off in one night. I enjoy books from the animal's point of view. If you liked Watership Down, Jonathan Livingston Seagull, and Animal Farm, you will like First Person Cat. I noticed the publisher included endorsements, right in the book, by world renowned celebrity cat and pet owners like Tippi Hedren, Lou Ferrigno and Roger Williams. The author's research was evident in it's accuracy-the Beverly Hills neighborhoods, the stars, the parties, the action. Although the murder is described, I have no problem allowing my kids to read it. It is minor friendly.
