Join Mystery Guild for a great deal on THE CAT WHO DROPPED A BOMBSHELL
I live with a pair of Siamese
Who think they can do whatever they please.
They subsist on steak
And truffles and cake
And lobster and six kinds of cheese.
—James Mackintosh Qwilleran
Lilian Jackson Braun, the Queen of Cat Capers, returns! Heavy weather is coming to Pickax City, and it’s up to Jim Qwilleran and his sleuthing Siamese, Koko and Yum Yum, to divert disaster…both natural and man-made!
While the tiny town of Pickax—“400 miles north of everywhere”—is swept up in its sesquicentennial celebration, Qwill, Koko and Yum Yum move back to their summer home, a luxurious converted apple barn. The gala event includes a parade with floats and marching band, a cat show (natch!), and an heirloom auction, with one wealthy Pickax couple, Doris and Nathan Ledfield, donating some especially beautiful antiques.
But not everyone is making merry—two duck-hunting brothers from Texas meet a grisly fate at their family reunion, and the Ledfields have fallen deathly ill. Then Koko develops a strange new hobby: he drops from balconies, landing in the oddest of places…such as right on the noggin of a house guest! Meanwhile, a hurricane is brewing, and Qwill has his work cut out for him when Pickax—as predicted by Koko—gets hit by a bombshell!
