Publisher Description

Polly Duncan is off to Paris, temporarily leaving Jim Qwilleran without his lady companion. Good thing there's lots to keep Jim busy. Like a mysterious death from a bee sting that leaves everyone but Koko the Siamese in a state of confusion. If only the kitty with sixty whiskers would stop pussyfooting around and let Jim in on the deadly secret.

"Another enjoyable book from the The Cat Who series. I don't want to post any spoilers but one of the main characters did something quite surprising (no, not Koko or Yum Yum)... "

    " This was not the best "Cat Who" book, but it was pretty good. It was short and easy to read. Sometimes I just like to have something light and a little bit cheesy, not so deep. These always fit the bill. "

    " I really enjoyed many of the early books in this series. This installment did not have the spirit or the authenticity of the others. It felt like someone had created a book out of index cards written by someone else. "

    " I hate having to give any book such a low rating. I really do. But this one was... basically incomprehensible, I guess. I started reading this series when I was twelve, and even though I don't read as many cozies in general anymore, this is one series that I always read, out of loyalty, or nostalgia, or something. Some of the earlier ones really were quite good. Unfortunately, I think Mrs. Braun is overdue for retirement. Or at least needs a serious editor. Was there even a mystery in this mystery? Sort of vaguely, I guess. But there was no coherent plot, and the characters acted very out-of-character, and the writing was disjointed. It made me sad. "

    " bleh, if this is the direction braun is taking the cat who books no more for me! I feel like qwilleran hasn't developed as a character and that he's shown a marked lack of emotion when people he knows dies or something huge happens in his own life. "

    " I have read all the books in this series. Happily I haven't purchased all of them. This is the latest one. It was a fast read, but the series proably needs to be ended. Not much plot, etc. If you want to get into the series read the first several books, but not this book. "
