Publisher Description

Persuaded by his beloved companion to join her in a group tour of Scotland, Qwill expects to revel in his Scottish heritage while keeping Polly Duncan safe from the Pickax Prowler. Instead, his trip is cut short when a thief swipes a suitcase, the bus driver disappears, and a fellow tourist is found dead, all in the same day.

Although the town of Pickax is in a tizzy over the recent events, Qwill has other, more puzzling worries on his mind. Who is the fellow still following Polly? Why is Koko licking Qwill's photographs of Scotland and tackling him on the apple barn stairs? Upon investigating the secret life of the deceased and the bizarre behavior of one of the tour's members, Qwill's sensitive moustache tells him one thing: more trouble is on the way.

"Qwill is leaving for Scotland but the cats are back in Pickax. But, once Qwill comes back Koko knows that something is wrong and Qwill has to follow the lead of the cat to solve the mystery. J. Robert Ewbank author "John Wesley, Natural Man, and the 'Isms'" "

    " I got tired of reading the same book over and over again. I can't believe it took me 14 books to get to this point. I guess I'm more of an eternal optimist than I thought I was. "

    " Great read, as always with this series. Especially appealing to me as a chunk of the story was set in Scotland. I listened to the audio version of this book, and, again as always, George Guidall's narration is simply excellent. "

    " Not the best, but certainly not the worst in the series. I liked the Scottish tie-in throughout the book. I did not like having to listen to the same recordings multiple times in the story. Particularly when they didn't have much to do with the plot. "
