Murder at the Cat Show

A "e;suspenseful"e; 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. "e;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."e; Publishers Weekly "e;For the marvels of metamorphosis, stick to Kafka. For the joy of cats, consider Ms. Babson."e; The New York Times Book Review on Nine Lives to Murder
