About this listen
When a wealthy couple dies, Jim Qwilleran and his cats, Koko and Yum Yum, must follow the case to its explosive conclusion in this mystery in the best-selling Cat Who series.
The town of Pickax is buzzing with excitement: its residents are about to celebrate the 150th anniversary of its founding. But in the midst of all the preparations, Qwill has to take time out to entertain aspiring architect Harvey Ledfield - and deal with Koko’s strange new habit. Because the Siamese star has started dropping from balconies and landing in the oddest of places, including on Harvey’s head!
And now that Harvey’s aunt and uncle have mysteriously gone missing, Qwill better brush up on his paw language before Pickax is hit with a bombshell....

This collection of essays observes the perils of motherhood, wifehood, selfhood, and other assorted challenges. Since its publication in 1957, it has sold millions of copies and has been adapted into a Broadway play, a film, a TV series, and now an audiobook. Jean Kerr's parodies of the clichéd 1950s prescription for glamorous or maternal feminine behavior still resonate today as we enter the 21st century.

Cats who know they are people
Those humans such as ourselves know that we are well trained by our humans. That is why I love listening to the series about two wonderful cats who help to solve the mystery of the story. You just have to know that there seems to be more truth to what comes from the cat then what comes out of the human.

I am a fan of these books not just because the stories are well written and entertaining but because I have an ongoing love for George Guidall as the. Narrator. His voice takes me on the journeys of the story like I was actually there. Thank you for this gift of peaceful pleasure.

Reader is excellent professional
Guidall (spelling) the voice artist makes the men, women and CATS speak as separate individuals with personalities.
This is not Braun’s strongest plot, but it gives a wistful glimpse into the future of this community. Read the book in the chronological order it was written, late in the series, and it will be more rewarding.

Koko, Yum Yum, and Qwilleran Deliver
With the masterful narration by the very best in the world, George Guidall, these characters are pictured in our mind as easily as a lifelong friend would be. Always a pleasure to read about their adventures!

I miss the author of this fine book series
Lilian Jackson Braun was the winner of many writing awards due to great writing skill. smooth and very pleasant style was extremely easy to get whisked into the world she created and feel like you were in the character's shoes.
