Quotes

“Narrator Natalie Naudus does a great job bringing key characters to life, both human and feline. She creates a wonderfully funny and believable character in Marshmallow, whose cat-centric asides are peppered throughout the audiobook. Naudus’s characterizations of both Mimi and her sister are strong, highlighting their two very different personalities. She also creates the glimpse of a warm heart in the austere Detective Brown.” AudioFile
