'A terrific read - murder, arson and a cat who is so much more than he seems!' – J. M. Hall, author of A Spoonful of Murder

The Cat Who Solved Three Murders by L T Shearer is a charming cosy crime read for fans of Richard Osman and S. J. Bennett.


Retired police detective Lulu Lewis’s life changed forever when she met a street cat named Conrad. There’s something very special about Conrad, but it’s a secret she has to keep to herself.

When Lulu takes her narrowboat to Oxford, she is planning nothing more stressful than attending a friend’s birthday party. And drinking a few glasses of Chardonnay.

But a brutal murder and a daring art theft means her plans are shattered – instead she and Conrad find themselves on the trail of a killer . . .

A killer who may well strike again.

The story was captivating, the characters well developed, and it was a very suspenseful read. The main character, Lulu has a tendency to be rash and stupid. For a woman who supposedly held the office of superintendent, I find this quite a bizarre portrayal. The story fell down at the end, where friendship outweighed justice. If a person is guilty of murder, then it is beholden on a person, who had been a ranking member of police, to ensure that the police have all of the relevant information. The narrative supports the notion, that wealth and who you know, is more important than guilt or innocence. A pity, as I had enjoyed the first book and most of this one, but I doubt I will read any further books in the series.

I liked everything up until the last two pages.
