Shirley Rousseau Murphy, the acclaimed author of the
award-winning Joe Grey mystery series, teams up with her
husband, Pat J. J. Murphy, to conjure a charming
supernatural adventure involving the devil, a thief, a bet,
and a spirited phantom cat.
To the devil, the span of a human life is as brief as spit
on the wind. But the challenge of playing with flawed
humans, like a cat toying with a mouse, is endlessly
amusing. If the Devil loses a wager though, he will harass a
person’s descendants until he eventually gets his due. Which
is why he is tormenting Lee Fontana.
The night before Lee is paroled, Satan terrifies and tempts
the thief with the promise of one more successful robbery.
But Lee has a secret ally looking out for him. The prison
cat, a ghost, will tail the ex-con on his dangerous
mission—an adventure that will leave a long legacy for
everyone’s favorite talking tomcat, Joe Grey, and his pals
in the charming California coastal town of Molina Point.
