The Cat's Confession

by A.L. Jambor

Things are quiet at the mobile home park, and Percival, whose spirit resides in Libby the psychic dog, is enjoying a nice snooze on the sofa with his mama when something rouses him from his nap. He waddles to the porch to find Herbert the cat at the screen door and he's troubled. He saw something that reminded him of his human life, and he's afraid someone in the park might be a danger to the other residents. As Herbert pours his heart out to Percival, the pudgy terrier is distracted by something odd - a vacant spot at the home next door, the home of Norman, an ex-cop from New York. Norman's gardening tools should be there, but they're not. Herbert reiterates his story and enlists Percival's help in discovering the identity of the person in the park so they can put their minds at ease.

After Herbert leaves, Percival tries to finish his nap on the porch but is interrupted once more when someone knocks on Norman's door. It's a newcomer to the park, and he has Norman's bucket of gardening tools. He says his mother took them and apologizes. After he leaves, Norman watches the man go down the road, and Percival keeps his eyes on Norman. Something about the stranger bothers the elderly gentleman, and his quizzical expression ignites Percival's inner detective.

His curiosity is further aroused after Norman comes to visit Mama and tells her that the man who knocked on his door reminds him of a cold case he worked on in the 1970's. A mobster was killed in his bed in the 1950's, but the murderer was never found. Norman wanted to solve the crime, but couldn't. He thinks the man at his door looks like the murdered man, who had a young son. Could that man be the mobster's son?

Percival now has two mysteries to solve, and welcomes the opportunity to use his investigative skills, which are often hampered by the fact that he is a short, fat terrier. But Percival will not be deterred and finds that he and Herbert will also need his lady love, Clair, a Standard Poodle, to solve the case.

The result was But the Children Survived, an apocalyptic story about how a pharmaceutical company’s greed led to the destruction of North America. From there, Amy began writing fantasy mysteries that incorporated both her love of puzzles and her humor. Nick Dandino and Lord Percival Plep are two of her protagonists – the first a PI in heaven, the second an English lord reincarnated as a pudgy terrier named Libby.

Libby steps up when needed.

This is the 5th book in this series, it is the 4th I have read. Each one has been delightful. The dogs work together to solve mysteries in the Mobil home park. This time there were two murders by a bit man. Herbert the cat tells Libby he was a bit man in a previous life and he thinks a man living in mobile home park looks familiar but he is too young to be anyone he knew. Libby keeps her eyes open because she is always worried about mama. As things progress the animals have to figure ways to let their owners know what is going on. The mysteries are always solved and the story is good and all humans are kind to their animals.

Interesting

If we were reincarnated into animals bodies this would be our story. The animals are adjusting to their new lives and can't help but contemplate mysterious happenings in the trailer park. I would read another even though it a little out of the norm for me to read.

It was adorible. The animals and their behavior was still human even though they had lost their former bodies. I'm not sure I would want to come back as any animal if such a thing was possible unless I could really still talk to others. They where so lucky to have found others just like themselves

First time author, for me.

Quick read. Animals, who were humans in a past life, get into all kinds of situations. They help their owners, with various situations.
