As the Highland Games approach, Jim Qwilleran and the citizens of Pickax prepare to celebrate their Scottish heritage ...a lot of mysteries to sort out - not the least of which is Koko's sudden interest in photographs, pennies, and paper towels...

I have really enjoyed the CAT WHO series. It isn't exactly realistic, but I enjoy the quirkiness of the characters and the continuity from book to book. In this book, readers learn a little more about Qwilleran's Scottish background, as he and his extroadinary cat solve yet another local murder. (In such a small town, it's amazing there are any people left!)

As the Highland Games approach, Jim Owilleran and citizens of Pickax prepare to celebrate their Scottish heritage with such events as bagpipe skirling and tossing the caber. But the traditional revelry is marred by the troublesome rumors when a visiting jewelry dealer, renowned for his romantic streak is found dead in his hotel room. His assistant is missing-and soon, the winner of the caber-tossing contest disappears as well. Qwill has a lot of mysteries to sort out-not the least of which is Koko's sudden interest in photographs, pennies, and paper towels.

Qwill is getting ready with the citizens of Pickax to celebrate their Scottish heritage with bagpipe skirling and tossing the caber. But there are rumors when a visiting jewelry dealer is found dead. His assistant is missing and the winner of the caber-tossing contest disappears as well.

I read all the books in this light-hearted series one after another and really enjoyed them. The cat KoKo and his feline partner, Yum Yum, are endearing. Their owner is a former newspaper reporter, James Qwilleran. They live in a small town with lots of interesting residents. James can't seem to avoid murders though he sure would like to. The series ended abruptly with unresolved relationships due to the author's death at 97.
