I am a new fan of the Cat Who........... books. I like to alternate between these light reading genres to more detailed historical fiction. A cat is always front and center in the tale and the author is obviously well acquainted with the nuances of cat behavior. Anyone who loves cats and has a yearning for a light mystery will enjoy this book.
Wonderful! Read only once by me.

Shakespear's on the Pickax stage but murder is the main act.
Another great tale of Koko and Yum Yum solving a mystery - I love these books and have read every one!
You don't have to like cats to enjoy this book. These cat mystery books are the best.
An afternoon's entertainment.

From back of book:
There's something rotten in the small town of Pickax -- at least to the sensitive noses of newspaperman Jim Qwilleran and his Siamese cats Koko and Yum Yum. An accident has claimed the life of the local paper's eccentric publisher, but to Qwilleran and his feline friends it smells like murder.
They soon sniff out a shocking secret, but Koko's snooping into an unusual edition of Shakespeare may prove CATastrophic... because somewhere in Pickax a lady love not wisely but too well, a widow is scandalously merry, and a stranger has a lean and hungry look. The stage is set for Qwilleran, Koko and Yum Yum, and the second act of murder most meow...
