Synopsis: A &“suspenseful&” mystery starring two publicists—and a whole lot of cats—from the Agatha Award–winning author of Cover-Up Story (Publishers Weekly). British public relations firm Perkins & Tate are used to dealing with show business—but this time, the celebrities are cats. The company&’s been hired to publicize a major event for cat fanciers, but even if the felines in attendance are dignified, elegant, and well trained, the same doesn&’t always hold true for the humans . . . After a valuable cat statue disappears—and the exhibit&’s much-disliked organizer is found dead in a cage with two Sumatran tigers—Douglas Perkins and Gerry Tate must sniff out a two-legged beast. &“The appearance of this second-in-a-series from England will gladden Babson&’s numerous aficionados in America. . . . Suspenseful action . . . While many convincingly real cats compete for the reader&’s affections, even Doug, expressing indifference to feline charms, falls helplessly in love with a wistful kitten.&” —Publishers Weekly &“For the marvels of metamorphosis, stick to Kafka. For the joy of cats, consider Ms. Babson.&” —The New York Times Book Review on Nine Lives to Murder
