Helpful Score: 2
A delightful cozy mystery which finds Quill on a trip to Scotland with friends, one of whom does not come back! And even though the cats KoKo and YumYum are not with him, their reactions when he returns tell him they might know who is the guilty one!! Great fun and a quick read! Wonderful to read at night before sleeping!!

From the back cover: Qwill's on his way to Scotland--and on his way to solving another purr-plexing mystery. But this time Koko's nowhere near the scene of the crime. He and Yum Yum are back in Pickax being coddled by a catsitter...but Koko won't sit still once Qwill's traveling party returns--minus one member. He's behaving oddly, and Qwill knows what that means: Koko may have been miles away from the murder scene--but he's just a whisker away from cracking the case!
Very clever....Yum Yum plays a larger role in this one.
Good book
A wonderful way to pass a snowy afternoon.

Nice little mystery story. Good characterization, even of the cats in the story. The author writes with a sense of humor and care for the characters. These books are an easy read when you don't feel like taxing your brain with more "literary" novels.
14th Book in The Cat Who .... series - and a pretty good one, too!
