I have always heard people say that once any series contains more than four to five books, it becomes a bit boring for them. God knows I even agreed with them at one point in my life. Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula by R.F. Kristi is the ninth book in the author's series; I've read almost all of the books in the series, and I still want more.

This story kicks off after the team's last escapade in Sri Lanka. This time, Inca and her siblings traveled to a French patisserie competition with Mom, Solo, and Terrance to South Korea. Mom had been chosen to be one of the judges at the said competition. She also wanted to present a special cheese she had developed at the competition. Their journey to South Korea begins, and things begin to get serious as they encounter a jealous and dubious chef named Enzo. In South Korea, the team takes on the task of reuniting their tour guide, Ye-Jun, and his sister, Ji, who was in North Korea.

I am always blown away by the storylines of books in the series involving these cat detectives. The way the characters are developed is just phenomenal. I mean, they are animal characters, but they behave every bit like professional investigators or agents. I also loved the subplots in the book. It makes it more interesting, and it gives the reader several things to look out for. Not only was I focused on the competition and how Mom's presentation would go, I was also focused on what dubious plans Enzo would cook up and if the detectives would be able to reunite Ye-Jun and Ji together.

There was arguably nothing I disliked about this phenomenal children's book. I loved every idea the author incorporated into the storyline. The details about the French competition in South Korea and members of the team venturing into North Korea were absolutely magnificent. The characters in the book were also developed well. The scenes in the book were also put together well, and the events' correlation was perfect.

R.F. Kristi's Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula was professionally edited. I only found one minor error in it. I am rating this book 4 out of 4 stars because it deserves a perfect rating. I recommend it to children between the ages of 4 and 14.
