There’s no rest for the wicked…

When a young artist suddenly disappears, Qwill, Koko and Yum Yum know they have some serious sleuthing to do in Lilian Jackson Braun’s cosy feline mystery The Cat Who Sang for the Birds.
Perfect for fans of Sofie Kelly and Shirley Rousseau Murphy.

‘Lilian Jackson Braun purveys delight from beginning to end’ – Los Angeles Times

On the surface, things appear tranquil in Moose County. Jim Qwilleran, newspaper columnist and the county’s richest resident, has moved back in to the remodelled apple barn with his two remarkable felines, Koko and Yum Yum. And the newly built gazebo is providing an idyllic opportunity for all three to commune with nature.
But then an elderly woman dies in a suspicious fire. Next, the newly opened art centre falls victim to a mysterious break-in. Throw in a scandal involving an unscrupulous local politician and an anti-computer uprising at the town library and life in Pickax is anything but peaceful…

What readers are saying about The Cat Who… series:

‘These [books] make lovely, light-hearted reading with a good mix of humour and adventure

‘The entire ‘Cat Who…’ series are a delight for cat and mystery lovers

Quirky – lovely for anyone who owns or has owned an intelligent cat’
