The Cat Who Went into the Closet, Lilian Jackson Braun (1993)
A good read. Once again, Qwilleran, the quirky
newspaperman with the endearing, bristling mustache who moonlights as a sleuth
and feeds his two Siamese cats Koko and Yum Yum nothing but people food
(sometimes gourmet at that), finds himself embroiled in a murder. With a vested
interest in what appears to be a suicide but, according to Koko's behavior, is
more likely foul play, Qwilleran is again on the prowl. If you enjoy high
society soirees, fund raisers, witty repartee, and a solid crime to solve, this
mystery is right up your boulevard. Despite the previous two disappointing
novels … Had 60 Whiskers and … Talked Turkey, in my eyes, given the
quality of … Went into the Closet, Braun
is redeemed. Four out of five stars. G
