The cat who talked to ghosts
9 journalers for this copy...
When Mrs. Cobb heard unearthly noises in the antique-filled farmhouse, she called Jim Qwilleran for help. But he was too late. It looked as if his kindly ex-housekeeper had been frightened to death - but by whom? Or what? Now Qwilleran's moved into the historic farmhouse with his two cat companions - and Koko the Siamese is spooked. Is it a figment of feline imagination - or the clue to a murder in Moose County? And does Qwilleran have a ghost of a chance of solving this haunting mystery?

Paperback. (A book cover image is different.)
I read this every night before going to bed, a few pages at a time, then I fell asleep. Therefore the plot was a bit confused even dull, but the excitement was intensified at the end of the book. This was the third book by Lilian Jackson Braun that I read.

Oh dear, didn't I journal this when it arrived? Sorry! And thank you!
I enjoy the company of Qwill and his cats. I like the way these stories are told. This book was no exception. Nice company for a rainy day.
I already have a new reader for this in mind...

duffeli passed the book on to me when we met earlier today. I was glad to grab it as I've quite enjoyed the series, apart from the latest instalments which read as written by some other "author" altogether.

I took all three Jackson Braun books from today's monthly meet-up :D I'll probably read at least one of them myself too (and of course then the others, if the first one is good, easy and quick enough for me to read), but my actual/secret plan is to take them to Porvoo.. ;) Thanks for the books!

I might've been too tired when I read this because I had a hard time concentrating... I found myself disliking even Qwill at some point :O The cats were cool, there could've been more about the cats. It got better in the end though.

Thank you for the book, Delenna! This is a new series for me, but who could resist a cat whodunnit. Now I got two of them at the same time at the Riihimäki meet-up.

This was a light and entertaining read and I quite enjoyed it. The murder mystery seemed to be a sideline for a long time, but the historical and genealogical plots were interesting for me. And, of course, in the end the crimes committed in the distant past tied in with those of today.
My first The Cat Who ... novel, and I am pleased that I have two more waiting to be read on my shelf.
