Summary: for fans of the series 3 to 4 for anyone else
Comment: This 6th book in the series opens with Qwill, the new heir to the Klingenschoen fortune, trying to remember just who and where he is. As he remembers flashbacks cover the events leading up to the accident that lead to his amnesia, or was it an accident? Along the way Qwill, with the guidance of his cats, solves the long ago disappearance of a housemaid and encouters a scandal involving a the oldest most respected Moose County family.

Qwill's relocation to Moose County has been eased by friends, both old and new. His long time friend Arch Riker has come up north for a visit, a former land lady, Iris Cobb has relocated to Pickaxe to become his housekeeper. Qwill's romance with Dr. Melinda, begun in the previous book, is continuing. Other Moose County residents, both from the eariler Cat Who Played Brahms and new to this book appear.

This 'cozy' mystery will appeal more to those already familiar with the series although it could be enjoyed on its own merits by a mystery fan. A reader new to the series could also begin here.

Summary: The perfect murder mystery
Comment: I am a big fan of the Cat Who series by Lillian Jackson Braun. In fact, this was the first book I actually read from the series. I think I read this first book within the span of a day, and that was as a pre-teen. All the books in this series are full of captivating, edge of your seat suspense. Jim Qwilleran (Mr. Q, and Qwill) has inherited a mass fortune, but must inhabit Pickax county for a period of 5 years in order to obtain his new found wealth. In this story, he has just moved into the Klingoshen mansion with his 2 cats, Koko and Yum Yum. Koko has a crazy knack for sniffing our murder and mystery no matter where he is. And once again, his nose proves to hold the key, only this time by sorting Qwill's mail (only bringing those letter HE deems important). The antics of Koko and Yum Yum will make you laugh, while at the same time, setting the stage for a truly remarkable novel. I give this book (and the series) 50 stars.

Rating: 4
Summary: In Which Qwilleran, Koko, and Yum Yum. . .
Comment: . . .move to Pickax (pop. 3,000) in Moose County (400 miles north of everywhere)!

Why? Because Qwill is suddenly very, very rich! He endears himself to the population of Pickax by setting up a foundation to distribute his new wealth for the betterment of the community. He is also dating the beautiful daughter of the local doctor.

HOWEVER. . .someone does NOT approve of Qwill's actions; someone does NOT appreciate Qwill's generosity; and someone does NOT want Qwill, his moustach, or his cats to discover a deadly secret.

Fans of this series will also appreciate the return of Mrs. Iris Cobb, Qwill's landlady from Down Below, and the return of Arch Riker, Qwill's best friend from the newspaper world.

A good novel, and one which lovers of the series will greatly appreciate.
