Grey Howl
A strange apparition baffles even Mr Gray in this intriguing Dulcie Schwartz mystery.
A prestigious literature event is convening in Cambridge and Dulcie Schwartz is the university liaison. But a strange apparition is haunting the conference - and even Mr Gray, ghost of Dulcie's late, great cat, seems to be overwhelmed, leaving Dulcie to manage an increasingly backstabbing crew of professional rivals, one of whom may be a killer.
Grey Dawn
"You've got to beware the moon, Dulcie. Because the wolf is on the prowl..."
When grad student Dulcie Schwartz thinks she hears a wolf late one night, on her way to pick up some forgotten papers from her departmental office, she tries to dismiss it - but it's too late for her peace of mind. The noises, the dark building and an unnerving sighting of her adviser - looking strangely unhuman in the moonlight - all combine to thoroughly give her the creeps.
But it is not until the next morning that Dulcie learns the disquieting truth: she was right to be spooked. A woman worryingly close to the university was savagely attacked, that very night. A woman who looks like Dulcie.
Aided by the cryptic advice from her kitten Esmé and the ghost of her late, great cat Mr Grey, Dulcie can't stop herself from investigating, just a little...

Things look bleak for cat-loving Dulcie Schwartz when she finds the body of an academic rival she threatened to kill just days before...
When Dulcie Schwartz stumbles across the body of Melinda Sloane Harquist, a visiting scholar whose upcoming book threatens to ruin Dulcie's thesis and who she threatened to kill, in jest, just days before, it's creepily reminiscent of the nightmares that have been waking her for the past week. And with boyfriend Chris distant and preoccupied, and both the ghost cat Mr Grey and her kitten Esmé strangely cryptic in their advice, it's up to Dulcie to prove herself innocent, before it's too late...
Grey Expectations
A Dulcie Schwartz cat mystery.
Could a missing book be haunted? Dulcie Schwartz doesn't want to think so, but ever since it disappeared from the university, things have gone from bad to worse - one of her colleagues accused of homicide, and another revealed as an impostor. To top it all off, both the ghost cat Mr Grey and the kitten Esmé seem to have switched their allegiance to her boyfriend. Deprived of feline assistance, Dulcie must uncover the truth by herself, or else find herself on the hook for the theft - and murder.

When a student goes missing and a professor ends up dead, Dulcie Schwartz realizes that midterms are going to be worse than ever. She's hard at work on her thesis, but present day concerns (including the destructive mischief of her growing kitten) keep dragging her back into a tangle of motive, misbehavior, and maybe even murder. If only Mr Grey, her beloved feline ghost, would lend a hand, at least with that rambunctious kitten...

Unless her mother's dreams turn out to be premonitions and Dulcie's work has all been in vain. With the ghost of Mr Grey (her wise and loyal late, great cat) strangely silent, and her new kitten refusing to speak, this time Dulcie might just be on her own...
