Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Newspaperman, philanthropist and sleuth Jim Qwilleran leads a busy life in tiny Pickax City (pop. 3,000), but it is his prescient cats who beguile the reader in this lively mystery, the 16th in the Cat Who. . . series. Qwilleran is renting a huge but empty mansion from Junior Goodwinter, his managing editor, who inherited the white elephant from his feisty 88-year-old grandmother Euphonia Gage when she went to live in a Florida retirement community. When Euphonia is found dead, apparently a suicide, Junior is perplexed. He is still more confounded when her new will suggests that Grandma has gambled away her millions at the racetrack. The death of a local man whose wife was Euphonia's housekeeper raises the suspicions of the already skeptical Qwilleran. He sets up a sting operation with a lively Florida retiree, but his two best operatives are his Siamese cats, Koko and Yum Yum. Qwilleran, who can be gloomy, peevish, vain and demanding, is never dull. Other industrious inhabitants of Pickax City (an editor, a waitress, a dog trainer) are comparably unique and have enough sharp edges to avoid being cute. Of course, the cats get all the best lines. Mystery Guild selection.

From Library Journal

After reporter Jim Qwilleran rents a Florida mansion, Siamese cat Koko drags items from several closets that provide clues to the suspicious death of the mansion's elderly and eccentric owner. Meanwhile, a local missing potato farmer with remote ties to the old woman turns up dead. Moose County's quaint characters and events provide yet again delightful diversion for Qwilleran and reader alike.

5.0étoiles sur 5 It's nice!!!, Sep 14 2005
Par Tarra (Philippines) - Voir tous mes commentaires
It's so nice. After all, it's so nice that when I read it I'm so interested to use it as my book for my book report in school. The author is so good in writing I'm so sure... There are only times that I find it really boring.. But it's fun to read...

5.0étoiles sur 5 and found some skeletons there, Janv. 16 2004
Par Jeanne Tassotto (Trapped in the Midwest) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Jim Qwilleran, wealthy bachelor and newspaper columnist, has again changed residence, this time into the Gage mansion which just happens to be located next to his lady friend's carriage house. Living in a small town like Pickax (pop. 3000) in remote Moose County (400 miles north of everywhere) it pays to be discrete.

Soon after settling in though Qwill's Siamese cats begin to unearth 'treasures' left behind by the former occupant, the eccentric 88 year-old Euphonia Gage who has recently moved to Florida. Qwill's enjoyment of his new quarters is disrupted by news of her suicide. Something about it seems wrong to Qwill but he has trouble focusing on the problem due to other concerns, a worried daughter seeking her missing father, a one-man stage show, and an upcoming wedding not to mention the usual Moose County activities. In the end though Qwill and the cats sort out all the mysteries, even unearthing yet another deep-dark Goodwinter family secret.

This is another Moose County mystery complete with many of the familiar characters and marking the first appearance of Celia Robinson. This is a must for those who are fans of the series and would be enjoyable by anyone who likes the 'cozy' genre of mystery. For anyone who is seeking a more traditional mystery it would be one of the more acceptable of this series.

1.0étoiles sur 5 Braun's Great, But Van Patten's Got To Go, Oct. 12 2002
Par Un client
I am an avid audio book listener. Granted, I'm spoiled by George Guidall's excellent reading of the vast majority of Braun's "Cat Who" series. But Van Patten is a sad failure. Apparently Dove's editorial staff feared correcting him. He pronounces everything wrong: "Klingen-shone" instead of "Klingen-shane," for instance. He pronounces Nick and Laurie's last name "BAMba." The first syllable rhymes with "Tom," not "Pam." Twice he calls Euphonia Gage "Euphoria." He says Qwill will do his one-man Pickax history show for the Senior Care Faculty! He misread "Facility," and no one stopped the tape for another take. He inflects all wrong! He said Qwill "carried the cat coop-out" (meaningless) instead of "carried the cat coop out." What a disappointment for a Braun audio fan!
