Author:

Diana Hockley lives in a small town in rural Australia with her husband and seven pet rats. In addition to several short stories, Hockley also has two novels available.

Description:

“Frisbee, Fiona's pet rat is loyal and as loving as he knows how, but can he put aside his greed long enough to track down an evil-doer?”

Appraisal:

The author’s bio says she has pet rats which I’m guessing were the inspiration for this short story. The story is told from the standpoint of Frisbee, a pet rat. He is loved and spoiled by his owner, but despised by her husband, which turns out to be the crux of the story. A mystery spiced with a touch of humor, Frisbee, Rat Detective was a light, quick, and enjoyable read.

Format/Typo Issues:

No significant issues


Rating: **** Four stars
