  • The Cat Saw Murder by Dolores Hitchens ~ Full Audiobook [mystery]

    The Cat Saw Murder by Dolores Hitchens ~ Full Audiobook [mystery]
    Oct 6 2025
    The Cat Saw Murder by Dolores Hitchens audiobook. Genre: mystery When a sudden, senseless murder rips through the ordinary rhythms of a small town, the only witness seems to be the one no one believes: a watchful, inscrutable cat. In Dolores Hitchens' lean, razor-edged mystery, secrets long buried behind polite facades begin to surface as neighbors, lovers and strangers are forced under suspicion, and every ordinary detail takes on a menacing new meaning. With propulsive pacing, dry-eyed observation, and a moral gravity that lingers after the last revelation, The Cat Saw Murder pulls listeners into a world where loyalty and fear collide, where the truth depends on reading between the obvious and the overlooked, and where a single unexpected witness can change everything. Perfect for fans of classic noir and twisty detective fiction, this audiobook edition heightens Hitchens’ spare dialogue and tense atmosphere—making every creak, sideways glance and tiny clue snap sharply into focus as the case hurtles toward a startling, inevitable conclusion. Chapters (Approximate) (00:00:00) Chapter 01 (00:24:39) Chapter 02 (00:46:22) Chapter 03 (01:09:57) Chapter 04 (01:34:01) Chapter 05 (01:54:40) Chapter 06 (02:18:07) Chapter 07 (02:38:54) Chapter 08 (03:02:23) Chapter 09 (03:25:06) Chapter 10 (03:44:43) Chapter 11 (04:07:14) Chapter 12 (04:28:22) Chapter 13 (04:47:17) Chapter 14 (05:09:22) Chapter 15 (05:28:34) Chapter 16 (05:51:11) Chapter 17 (06:12:17) Chapter 18 (06:36:07) Chapter 19 (06:55:50) Chapter 20 Learn more about your ad choices.
