In The Call of the Cat Basket, Theodore, our reluctant cat detective, goes after escaped convict Milton Macavity. It is Bonfire Night and protestors have descended on York in their thousands. The pursuit takes Theodore into the crowded city centre, where he is soon reduced to life on the streets.

But is Milton really the villain, or is it his brother, disgraced banker Miles Macavity? Will Theodore be able to stop Bonfire Night ending with a bang and return to the comfort of his home and his rather vocal cat basket?

The Call of the Cat Basket is a book for everyone who likes cats, crime and York.
