More Qwill and the kitties solving crimes in the sleepy village of Pickax, where there must be a murder every week. Qwill needs to hook up with Jessica Fletcher because they both are murder magnets. Moose County's a rough place to live, people.
The newspaper's publisher has died. Accident, or murder? Well, since it's a cozy I'll let you figure it out. Qwill is on the case, and trying to be a mustachioed ladies man about town, but the cats continue to thwart him. Go, cats. Qwill is ridiculous. Polly is way too good for you. Still the same cast of characters you know and love, with Arch, and Mrs. Cobb, and a million Goodwinters.
A fun, easy series. Really enjoying reading through them all again. 3 stars.

This was a quick audio book (only 5 CDs and 6 hours). The narator is a man who suits the main character well.
I am a sucker for cats which is why I originally brought the first book in the series. They are all about a new reporter Mr Q and his two siamese cats YumYum and KoKo. KoKo is a cat who has a habit of solving mysteries and both cats have great personalities.
This one didn't contain as much suspence or action as the first book I read, but I never picked up the who done it for the crimes so it keeps your interest.
I would recommend for cat lovers, those who want a quick read (or listen)and those who want a book that you can pick up and put down again when time permits.

No. Just no. I don't wanna spoil it, but I'm seriously mad at Braun right now.

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. I love these books. I’ve grown attached to Qwill, Koko and Yum Yum. Are these books literary masterpieces? No. But for cozy mysteries, they are VERY well written and unique. “Ik ik ik” - says Koko.

The moral of this story? ALWAYS listen to Koko

Listened to this one with my kids. We thoroughly enjoyed this cosy little mystery, and LOVED the narrator. While there is nothing earth shattering here, it was pleasant and I would listen to another as I crocheted or sewed. It's that kind of book.
