Murder Most Feline - Cunning Tales of Cats and Crime (Paperback)

When Law Meets Paw...The result is this delightful anthology of seventeen courtroom tales by top-notch mystery writers. Cats and mysteries go hand-in-hand, no doubt. After all, what other animal is as mysterious as the common - yet never ordinary - house cat? What lurks behind that smug expression? What hidden secrets belie that indifferent stare? Always dignified, cats are quick to deal out their own justice with a claw or bite, and so it is only natural we find them in a variety of roles in these feline mysteries. Cats take the stand in their own defence to pounce on criminals, provide evidence, and turn the legal system on its collective ear - all in the name of justice. From a private eye who goes to bat for a cat's inheritance to a common mouser who turns out to be quite a bit more during a high-profile murder trial, these tales of crime are as crafty and cunning as kitties themselves - and just as entertaining Stories in this clever anthology include: The Witness Cat by Parnell Hall * Justice Knows No Paws by Jon L.Breen * It's in the Bag by Bill Crider * Animal Sounds by Dulcy Brainard * Blue Eyes by Janet Dawson * Cat, the Jury by Catherine Dain * The Memory Pool by Tracy Knight * The Lawlessness West of the Pecos by Jan Grape * Statute of Imitations by Morris Hershman * Catnip by Dick Lochte * Hoskin's Cat by Shirley Rousseau Murphy * Missing the Cat by Mat Coward * Prints by Ann Barrett * Mr. Biggles for the Defense by Matthew Costello * Family Ties by Richard Chizmar and Barry Hoffman * For the Benefit of Bootsy by Jeremiah Healy * In the Lowlands by Gary A. Braunbeck
