    Invasion!!!

    RELEASE DATE JULY 6, 2010

    We are back at the newly renovated Green Vase antique shop and Rebecca, Isabella and Rupert have been joined by some green amphibian intruders. The antique shop is not the only place the creatures have turned up and what does the note left by Uncle Oscar mean?

    Rebecca leaps right into another mystery filled with political conspiracy, faked deaths, hidden gold, and cold-blooded betrayal. Working with her uncle's quirky friends and even his arch enemy, Rebecca and the kitties are on a mission to find the truth "warts and all".


    I LIKE IT!!!

    This second book in the Cat and Curios Mystery series again takes us back in history to the days of Harvey Milk, who was an American politician who became the first openly gay man to be elected to public office in California, when he won a seat on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors and Mayor George Moscone, both were assassinated by Dan White, another city supervisor who had recently resigned but wanted his job back. Milk's election was made possible by and was a key component of a shift in San Francisco politics.

    She mixes history with her wonderful tale of the great frog invasion and her characters involvement in San Francisco's politics. So believable you wonder what parts of this story are true and what comes from Rebecca M. Hale's imagination. This is a truly enjoyable mystery with plenty of leaps, jumps, and little and not so little cat feet.

    a wild refreshing over the top of Nob Hill thriller.

    Her last blood relative Uncle Oscar died and within a week of his death, Rebecca lost her job at an accounting firm. She moves into the apartment above the Green Vase antique shop she inherited from Oscar, accompanied by her cats Rupert and Isabella. She quickly learned that her uncle used the store as a front to locate hidden treasures of historical figures he researched.

    Life turns dangerous when Frank tries to kill her using spider venom. She knows he still stalks her so she s so frightened she rarely leaves the shop. Her cats notice frogs in the apartment and give chase. Rebecca learns city hall has a frog infestation too. She ponders what her late uncle meant when he advised her with a note to "follow the frogs". Desperate and confused she visits Oscar's friend. Meeting Oscar's eccentric friends, Rebecca asks about the enigmatic note, but none of them grasp the meaning. However, dealing with betrayal and a stalker, Rebecca needs to know rather quickly what the hell is going on.

    The protagonist makes the tale work as she just wants to live a serene ordinary life, but is caught up initially in failure and fear, but quickly moves on to eccentricity as Uncle Oscar's zany crew welcome her as their leader. With a nod to the late Academy librarian Margaret Herrick for claiming claimed the annual awards statue looked like her Uncle Oscar; this tale crosses Charlie Chan with the Three Stooges to give readers an idea of Nine Lives Last Forever, a wild refreshing over the top of Nob Hill thriller.

    Cat's are fun too

    Though basically a dog lover, I enjoy the different personalities that the cats have. The stories are enjoyable and I love the little tidbits of history sprinkled in. The characters are memorable and I'm waiting for the next title in the series.

    San Francisco Treat for readers who like cats with their mayhem

    The second book in Rebecca M. Hale's Cats and Curios series, "Nine Lives Last Forver" is an entertaining romp through San Francisco with two highly entertaining cats, Isabelle and Rupert. Frogs, a lost fried chicken recipe [with a surprise ingredient]and an exciting visit to San Francisco's City Hall make this a must read for anyone who likes their mysteries with a feline flavor. I can't wait to read the third installment!

    "9 Lives" lasted too long

    Seemed like most of the book was a history (including political) of San Francisco. Author used overly wordy descriptions of most everything, went over already covered ground over and over and must have thought because she used a Mark Twain related theme that she too was being paid by the word. None of the characters are very engaging and the "heroine" take unnecessary risks and ends up in improbable situations. I love the cats, but even their antics got to be too much. This sort of wraps up a mystery begun in book one and hints at a possible mystery for a book 3, but I don't think I'll read.
