About this listen
Baking. It can get a guy killed.
A shadowy master criminal has been kidnapping experts from the food industry and stealing both food and equipment. The crimes are so unrelated no one in the world had noticed the connections.
No one except Albert Smith, that is.
He’s got almost nothing to go on, but with every place he visits, he gets just a little closer to the truth. He’s not working alone though, his faithful sidekick, Rex Harrison the former police dog is right there with him. Can the two of them pull off the impossible and find the man Albert chose to dub ‘the Gastrothief’?
Well, maybe, but it’s not going to be easy. Not least because the nation’s police suspect Albert of the very crimes he wants them to investigate.
On the run, far from home, and almost completely alone, can they turn their darkest hour into their greatest triumph?
Titles included in this collection:
Kent Coast Oyster Obliteration
Wedding Ceremony Woes
Eton Mess Massacre
Cornish Pasty Conspiracy
Vet’s Waiting Room
The Gastrothief
Lyme Regis Layover

Story
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Tess Strebel can’t recognize her own face. She can’t recognize her home. Her bedroom is unfamiliar. And she can’t remember the handsome stranger lying next to her in bed. A stranger who claims he’s her husband. Tess reads a letter in her own handwriting, composed during a rare lucid day, explaining her life as it now exists: she was in a terrible car accident one year ago. Every morning, she wakes up unable to remember most of the last decade. Including her own wedding.

After the killing of a prominent mob lawyer, NYPD homicide detectives Jacob Jackson and Caitlin Grimes start receive chilling, written “rules” for how to commit the perfect murder. "Rule number one for the perfect murder: Evidence is your enemy. Leave none behind." Jackson (Reid Scott) and Grimes (Cobie Smulders) race to find the killer, setting them on a collision course with the city’s crime underbelly, and a perpetrator who seems happy to toy with them. “Rule number two. No crimes of passion. The perfect murder is always business, never pleasure.”

Arriving in the famous English seaside resort, Albert plans only to reminisce about a childhood holiday more than 70 years in the past. While there, he will eat the town’s most famous creation—the sugary treat known as rock. But when he walks into a shop being shaken down by heavies enforcing a protection racket, all thoughts of relaxation go out the window. Instantly marked when Rex rousts the criminals, Albert must choose whether to leave the town—the sensible choice—or unravel the gang’s plans—the option containing the greatest likelihood for mayhem and danger.

Highly entertaining.
What a surprise this collection has been. Not being the genre I usually choose, I was only expecting and hoping for a little something to pass the time. I couldn’t have been more wrong. These stories have been a fun adventure that has been hilarious at times and always interesting. I shall miss Rex Harrison and Albert Smith more than I can say. Would it be too much to ask for another 10 books? The narrator was beyond excellent.

Rex the retired police dog...
...is really a star in these stories! I like how the author gives the animals “human” characteristics.
The adventures are realistic yet interesting and enticing! Alfred and Rex have adventures that focus on the mystery with enough detail to make me want to try the foods Alfred is searching for. The stories are “clean” with few innuendos related to sexual content. The murders are not given graphic detail but enough description to let ones imagination see the scene.

I love the fact that, as the synopsis tells us, there is no “cussing or explicit sex or violence.” All the stories are interesting and enjoyable, and most of them included a great twist!

"cozy" murders, a charming old man, and a hilarious police dog
Although some of the murders are grisly, Steve Higgs, the author, never indulges in the details. The lead characters are kind, intelligent, honorable, and brave. The narration is gentle and humorous, in other words, comforting.
