A charming and witty cozy mystery where a pair of clever Siamese cats help their human uncover the truth behind a small-town tragedy that’s anything but ordinary.
Life in Moose County is peaceful — until it isn’t. When a local landmark burns down and a beloved librarian dies under mysterious circumstances, columnist Jim Qwilleran begins to suspect foul play. As he follows the trail of clues, his brilliant Siamese cats, Koko and Yum Yum, start behaving strangely — offering their own uncanny insights into the mystery. With his sharp instincts (and Koko’s sixth sense), Qwill soon learns that even the quietest corners of Pickax City can hide dangerous secrets.
In The Cat Who Had 60 Whiskers, Lilian Jackson Braun returns readers to Moose County for one final cozy mystery filled with the warmth, humor, and feline intuition that made her series a classic. When a shocking fire leaves the community reeling, Qwill and his cats find themselves investigating not one, but several suspicious events — from a missing banker to a string of odd coincidences that only Koko seems to understand.
As always, Braun captures the rhythms of small-town life with affection and gentle humor, while her signature blend of mystery and comfort keeps readers smiling. A tender, reflective entry in the series, The Cat Who Had 60 Whiskers reminds us that curiosity, compassion, and a pair of watchful cats can solve almost anything.
