Meet prizewinning reporter Jim Qwilleran and his
extraordinary Siamese cats Koko and Yum Yum—the most
unlikely, most unusual, most delightful team in detective
fiction!
The way Jim Qwilleran sees it, there’s nothing worse than
being left high and dry. But that’s exactly where he’s
been ever since a record-breaking drought hit Moose
County. He’s bedraggled. Beleaguered. And, following a
rash of fires at local historic minesites, deeply
bewildered. Some blame the blazes on bad weather
conditions, but Qwill’s thinking arson. And when a
mysterious explosion is followed by a blood-chilling
murder, he starts seriously praying for snow—and answers.
Good thing Koko can smell trouble a mile away…
“A puzzling mystery…a most welcome addition to the
series.”— Publishers Weekly
“The feelings produced by reading about Qwill and his pals
can best be compared to that coziest of feelings—having a
purring cat on your lap.”
