Book Review: shades of Grey by Clea Simon

The very first book in the brand new series by Clea Simon, shades of Grey features Harvard grad trainee Dulcie Schwartz, who is fascinated by 18th century Gothic novels.  Dulcie is not having a great summer.  She just recently lost her cherished pet feline Mr. Grey, her finest buddy as well as room-mate has gone away for the summer, as well as she has sublet her apartment or condo to an unpleasant service institution student.   One day, Dulcie comes house from her tiring temp task at an insurance coverage company as well as is about to go into her apartment or condo when she sees a feline that looks just like her cherished Mr. Grey, as well as she clearly hears a voice in her head alerting her “I wouldn’t go in just now, if I were you.”  Is it he spirit of her pet?  Dulcie ignores the warning, as well as discovers her room-mate murdered with her own kitchen area knife. 

This sets up a multi-layered plot in which our heroine offers with murder, somebody hacking into computers at the insurance coverage company she temps at as well as at Harvard, as well as research study for her thesis on Gothic novels.  Throughout all of this, the ghost of her feline continues to appear, using his cryptic advice.  Is it a ghost, or a spirit guide?  You’ll have to checked out this very well-crafted as well as satisfying secret to discover out for yourself.  This book has whatever a secret (and cat) lover might want:  a fantastic story, a likeable heroine, a spirit cat, a bit bit of romance, remarkable story telling as well as multi-dimensional secondary characters.  I can’t wait on the next book in this series.
