Helpful Score: 1

This "The Cat Who.." seems like it was written by a schizophrenic with ADD. Character personalities and plot points jump all over without continuity with most of the writing appearing to be little more than chapter outlines. On top of that, spelling errors! The "turkey talking" had zero to do with anything and seemed like a very weak motif. The last few pages were really disturbing and completely unbelievable, sort of like Twin Peaks, but with less lucidity. There was no mystery, Qwill didn't seem to give a darn about the murders (one of which was ON HIS PROPERTY!) and again, we are treated to more and more of Qwill throwing his money and influence around, townspeople constantly sucking up, and none of the characters have enough texture to tell them apart. Lastly, there are several continuity errors regarding persons and events from past novels. It's really sad for me. I love LJB, but she needs to retire.
