Praise for Lilian Jackson Braun: Light-hearted originals... The mix of crime and cats [is] catnip to readers who like both
The fastidious plotting is designed to appeal to more than just the cat-lover
The tale is as cosy as an hour spent with your favourite cat
It's a Wonderful Life meets The Aristocats in this daft but endearing whodunnit
Irresistible
Another from the series that delights so many
Most detectives do their legwork on two legs. A few, however, do it on four...
The ideal bedtime tales for grown-ups
An offbeat series with a good deal of charm
A series which has more twists and turns than a tabby's tail. This whimsical offering will probably leave you wondering where your tom is tonight
