Product Description
Product Description
Jim Qwilleran's latest commission is a piece on Junktown - a ghetto of antique dealers and collectors living in genteel decay. Enchanted by Junktown and its delightfully bohemian inhabitants, Qwill finds himself digs in the area, renting two rooms to share with his sleuthing Siamese companions Koko and Yum Yum. When his landlord C.C. Cobb, one of Junktown's leading citizens, falls mysteriously to his death, Qwill's famous whiskers begin to twitch. It's only when Koko develops a passion for tape-recorders, to rival even that of his journalist mentor, that the vital clues begin to drop into place...

I have just read this ,completely out of order, and find this early introduction to Koko and Yum yum fascinating with its gentle introductions to characters who play a large part in the later books.The cat reactions are particularly sensible .

This is a great book - it has got it all: Handsome detective, comments on the society, humor, and two wonderfull cats. The whole series is great, and this one also has great description of the settings - Junktown, antique dealers.
Also it is not difficult to read when english is not your mothertongue.

More of the ins and outs of a man and his cats. Koko and Yum Yum are a definate asset to Qwills detecting skills and give another dimension to this type of whodunnit.
