This is a wonderfully written book. Colt wanders through several generations talking about his family's experiences at their Cape Cod summer home. It is a book that can be picked up and put down without concern for losing the plot. Each chapter stands alone and is interesting on its own.

As always, this Cat Who story is a twist of details which add up to the answer to the "who dunit" question. Always fun.

I enjoyed "Gracie" -- as long as I remembered to take it "with a grain of salt". George paints a very pretty picture of their relationship. It is interesting to learn a bit about the vaudeville life. If you are familiar with vaudeville performers, you'll find it fun to be reminded of their antics and characters.
