The Case of a Mouse in My Soup
When a customer at Annie’s friend’s restaurant claims to have found a mouse in her soup, Annie asks Finn to uncover the truth. Was this a case of a rat in the kitchen or a made up tale to earn a quick buck? Join Finn and Annie as they seek to solve the mystery of a Mouse in my Soup!
In this heartwarming short story by Wall Street Journal bestselling author Christopher Greyson, join Finn and Annie as they work together to solve The Case of a Mouse in my Soup!
Finnian Church is trying to piece his life back together. After losing his leg serving in the Army, he is starting a new career as an insurance investigator. Joining him is newly hired videographer Annie Summers— a woman who lost her hearing and is trying to make it as a single mother of two. The world might see them as broken and battered souls, but as they come together to solve mysteries, they discover that they make a great team. Join this unlikely duo as they investigate their way through murder, arson, theft, embezzlement, and maybe even love, seeking to distinguish between truth and lies, scammers and victims.

About the author
Christopher Greyson
57 books1,059 followersMy name is Christopher Greyson, and I am a storyteller.
Since I was a little boy, I have dreamt of what mystery was around the next corner, or what quest lay over the hill. If I couldn’t find an adventure, one usually found me, and now I weave those tales into my stories. I am blessed to have written over twenty novels.
My love for tales of mystery and adventure began with my grandfather, a decorated World War I hero. I will never forget being introduced to his friend, a WWI pilot who flew across the skies at the same time as the feared, legendary Red Baron. My love of reading and storytelling eventually led me to write and it’s the best job I’ve ever had.

Another 5 star read! I'm loving this series more and more! The mystery was interesting, as it always is. This story showed more of their relationship as well as Finn's past. And that ending!!! I can't believe I have to wait a month to see what happens next!

The Case of a Mouse in my Soup: A Mini Mystery Series (The Adventures of Finn and Annie Book 7 [Kindle Unlimited] — Christopher Greyson (9 chapters) April 12, 2020
This is the seventh book in the series; it read faster than the last book, despite having two additional chapters. It also has a bit of a religious slant to it. Not really needed, but oh well.
This time Annie has a case for Finn, and it does get solved, but the story ends on a real cliffhanger, and now I’m going to have to hunt the next book down to read it!
Five stars.

Very short and not much depth
I was not expecting this to be such a short story, it was cute but did not have much to go on and no depth of characters.

I've heard of a hair in my soup but ..........
Another great little read. This time it's Annie that wants Finn's help. Her friends are in trouble. A customer claims to have found a mouse in her soup and has now asked for money or she will go to the police. A lunch time date, two children who have gotten more than a little fond of him, a letter, an accident and a mouse autopsy. Was the mouse really in the soup? Will Finn sort out this problem? What will the letter mean for all of them?

A heartwarming mystery
This is a different kind of mystery story. Short but meaningful in that the main characters have both suffered physical disabilities as well as personal life difficulties in their personal relationships. These difficulties make for development of some complex characters that not strengthen the short story. This mystery of a mouse in a bowl of soup was interestingly told with an unexpected ending. In the end, a heartwarming ending and a bit of a cliffhanger. Makes you want to read more!

Annie asks Finn to lunch, but not on a date, which disappoints both of them. Instead, she needs to ask a favour, which is for him to solve the mystery of a restaurant customer saying there was a mouse in her soup.
They learn the truth, and the customer already wants to take back her accusation. Then Annie discovers a letter from Finn’s ex fiancée, to be continued.
Sweet series, love the cute problems and solutions.

"These Short Stories Of Finn And Annie Are Getting Better and Better"
Yahoo! Another great mini-story about Finn and Annie. It's a quick, sometimes a little quirky, story which is certainly entertaining. When you order soup at a restaurant, make sure there isn't a dead mouse in the bowl! Oh, and is there also potential romance between Finn and Annie. I'm waiting for the next story!

The Mousetopsy
Finn and Annie investigates another case, introducing us to more characters that make them who they are. Neither ready to admit their vulnerabilities. Will they or will they not?

Reader's Dream Come True
I look forward to these Finn & Annie stories like children look forward to their favorite dessert. Wholesome, good plots and well developed characters. I am so very impatient for the next ones and so impressed with the last ones.

Mini mystery
Excellently written! Enjoyed her boss’s discomfort with his face turning red. Loved how the children treated him causing the same discomfort in her, Just a sweet short story.

Cute short story series
I like that the stories are short and they don't have sex or profanity in them. I hope Mr Greyson continues the series.
