Review: What’s not to love about a series featuring a veterinarian turned animal behaviorist who can talk with animals? This is the fourth installment in the Call of the Wilde mystery series, and this time we travel with Grace Wilde as she ventures to New Orleans to communicate with a cat that may hold the clue to the whereabouts of her missing owner. Almost as soon as she arrives in the spooky Southern city, Grace is up to her eyeballs in mystery. This book is filled with interesting characters, including a little Pomeranian named Elvis who thinks he’s the King.
