Synopsis
When a wealthy couple dies, Jim Qwilleran and his cats, Koko and Yum Yum, must follow the case to its explosive conclusion in this mystery in the bestselling Cat Who series.
The town of Pickax is buzzing with excitement: its residents are about to celebrate the 150th anniversary of its founding. But in the midst of all the preparations, Qwill has to take time out to entertain aspiring architect Harvey Ledfield—and deal with Koko’s strange new habit. Because the Siamese star has started dropping from balconies and landing in the oddest of places, including on Harvey’s head! And now that Harvey’s aunt and uncle have mysteriously gone missing, Qwill better brush up on his paw language before Pickax is hit with a bombshell...

About the Author
The history of Lilian Jackson Braun is perhaps as exciting and mysterious as her novels. Between 1966 and 1968, she published three novels to critical acclaim: The Cat Who Could Read Backwards, The Cat Who Ate Danish Modern, and The Cat Who Turned On and Off. In 1966, the New York Times labeled Braun, “the new detective of the year.” Then, for reasons unknown, the rising mystery author disappeared from the publishing scene. It wasn’t until 1986 that Berkley Publishing Group reintroduced Braun to the public with the publication of an original paperback, The Cat Who Saw Red. Within two years, Berkley released four new novels in paperback and reprinted the three mysteries from the sixties. Since then, G.P. Putnam’s Sons has published seventeen additional novels in the Cat Who series. Braun passed away in 2011.
From AudioFile
George Guidall obligingly takes us back to Pickax, 400 miles from anywhere, in this Lilian Braun offering. Koko, that Siamese super cat, dives from his master Qwill's balcony onto the head of a visiting architect. This folksy mystery has all the eccentric characters and kindly folk that Braun fans adore, and Guidall has his unique, and by now well-recognized, voices that bring the community to life. Fans can't get enough of the Cat Who . . . series, and hearing the novels performed by Guidall makes the experience all the more enjoyable. Listeners hoping to hear Koco's distinctive death yowl will not be disappointed. It's hard to imagine that anyone but George Guidall could make a feline hero so real.
