Love this series

Perfect ending to the Gastro Thief series. The stories are clever and so entertaining. Albert and Rex are now my favorite detectives.

Love the Storyline!

I love the writing style and wit of Steve Higgs writing! His character, Albert Smith is so intelligent and rational that I enjoy his intellect. I could strangle his dog Rex for a number of his antics but, Albert is a more forgiving dog owner than I.  I’m glad he found Rex to keep him company in his later years. The plot twists are creative and fun. I truly enjoyed the comeuppance of a certain police character near the end of the series whom I won’t mention! My husband and I both recommend Steve Higgs books, we’ve purchased every written and audible series he’s selling. Good, clean (with very few naughty bits) fun! As a side note, we love the book’s narrator!

The series was fun funny and fabulous

I listened to the entire series and it was amazing. Talk about persistence tenacity and new friendships. The ending was a fantastic surprise. Love this series. I want to be Albert Smiths friend and join him on an adventure.

Perfect!

This is my second time through this series, and it won’t be my last. It checks all the boxes for me: engaging characters, exciting storyline, funny moments, and an overarching sense of good vs evil, love of family and friends, and the special relationship between a remarkable man and his extraordinary dog.

Fun energetic story

What a fun and energetic story from beginning to end! I can only hope to have the energy of Albert Smith at 78! I love the animal characters and their attitude regarding humans! Fun read for sure

Completely endearing.

What a lovely series! Clever, funny, and completely endearing. The author told the story from the perspective of the main character and his dog. He made me laugh out loud frequently with his witty antics
