4.0 out of 5 stars Don't rub this Kat the wrong way!, January 24, 2005

By

This review is from: Katwalk (Kat Colorado Mysteries) (Paperback)

After reading 6 of the 8 Kat colorado Novels I can honestly review them.


Kat Colorado is a former Bartender turned private Investigator in Sacramento CA. Like Many Mystery or suspense Protagonists she has a troubled past which she seems to wear like a badge of honor with her don't mess with me attitude. Surronded by quirky friends and hangers-on Like Alma her adoptive grandmother or Rafe her sort of cousin brother friend or Bill Henley her cop friend. But Katwalk Involves her best friend Charity and advice columnist who life is more troubled than her readers. When Charity's Husband Sam runs off to Vegas with $200,000 She asks Kat to Find out why. and Kat finds a plot in which Sam has got himself Involved and Kat Can't Leave well enough alone. SO begins a Recurring theme in the Kat Colorado Novels..... Kat finds a Plot, Kat sticks her nose in deep, Kat gets hurt, then Kat solves mystery usually picking up a new Hanger on... this time Hank(whom she called Hunk in a Fruedian slip when they first met) Katwalk Is a fun and easy read.. but the Usual mystery cliche's appear. but doesn't detract from the fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars The book was fast moving, May 29, 2002

Michelle D. Mcgriff "Author" (Portland, OR) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Katwalk (Kat Colorado Mysteries) (Paperback)

I was only able to read a couple of pages the first night I got the book and right away I was dreaming about the story. VERY engrosing characters. Kat is a gal that, for some reason, sticks with you for a while.
The characters were well developed and that was good, considering how fast the storyline moves. I enjoyed the column starting each chapter. It was an entertaining read too. I like to read about strong women who know how to defend themself (Even with a cast on)

4.0 out of 5 stars Introducing Kat Colorado, April 7, 2003

By 

elkiedee "elkiedee" (London) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Katwalk (Kat Colorado Mysteries) (Paperback)

I quite enjoyed reading this short, fast paced mystery introducing Kat Colorado, a female Sacramento PI.

Kijewski has defended setting her series in Sacramento, and I was quite interested in reading a book set in a smaller Californian city, but in fact Kat's debut case takes her off to Las Vegas in pursuit of a friend's no-good husband. As befits a mystery, things soon take a more murderous turn.

I liked the main character and was carried along by the energy of the narrative, though I think Kat does some rather silly things along the way. I will read more in the series.
