Could a missing book be haunted? Dulcie Schwartz doesn't want to think so, but ever since it disappeared from the university, things have gone from bad to worse - one of her colleagues accused of homicide, and another revealed as an impostor.

Deprived of feline assistance, Dulcie must uncover the truth by herself, or else find herself on the hook for the theft - and murder.

"Poor Dulcie doesn't know which way to turn in this one. She's spinning like a top with more problems than ever before. I'll put my review into a more coherent form later. Right now I have to help my partner do some more Passover prep work."

" A cozy academic mystery with a ghost cat and a living kitten helping an amateur sleuth grad student - why not. I thought that the crime part was a bit weak, but the characters are likable. "
