The world of modern art is a mystery to many. But for Jim Qwilleran it turns into a mystery of another sort when his assignment to cover the art beat for the Daily Fluxion leads down the path to murder. A stabbing in an art gallery, vandalized paintings, a fatal fall from a scaffolding - this is not at all what Qwilleran expects when he turns his reportorial talents to art. But now Qwilleran and his newly found partner, Koko the brilliant Siamese, are back in their element - sniffing out clues and confounding criminals intent on mayhem and murder.
Qwilleran - a prize-winning reporter with a nose for crime. Koko - a Siamese cat with extraordinary talents and a flair for mystery. The most unlikely, most unusual, and most delightful team in detective fiction!

The first of the series of The Cat Who and clearly one of the best of those. The way daily life and the mystery are blended together, the delicate talk of the cat and the difficulties of the newly found human being to understand what the cat it trying to tell, it's all mixed nicely together and makes it a story you don't put down that easily.
Great reading for in between!

I do love these little mysteries!
Though I started to read them all out of order, so it's nice to see how it all begins.
Koko is such a noble cat!
