"The game is afoot, and the four footed are its most cunning players in Crafty Cat Crimes. In one hundred cagey cat-tale mysteries, the largest literary litter of kitty crimestoppers ever convened in one volume prowl the mean streets in pursuit of feline felons, justice, just desserts--and the occasional pat on the head. You don't have to be a cat lover to enjoy these stories of crime and intrigue. You just have to like challenging mysteries where a twist in the tale comes naturally. There is virtually no crime these cats don't put the paw on. Whether confronted with cat burglary, catnapping, or murder most foul, they work through seemingly insoluble puzzles with a stealth, feline finickiness, and silent grace that are the envy of their two-footed counterparts. Crafty Cat Crimes includes selections to suit every reader's taste: cat cozies for the domestic-minded, comic cat capers that look at the funny side of human and animal relationships, even hardboiled escapades that mix cats and gats" --provided by Goodreads.… (plus d'informations)
This is a 613 page anthology of very short mystery stories, all featuring cats in one way or another. Cats being mysteries themselves are very good at solving mysteries created by we imperfect humans:) Each of the 100 little stories here, by different authors, take only minutes to read and all feature cats either as the good guys… or in some cases the bad. Of course everyone who is, or has ever been, owned by a cat knows that there is no such thing as a “bad” cat...simply misunderstood. Some of the stories are deadly serious while others are absolutely hilarious. Even if you are a “dog” person you will find these little stories delightfully entertaining…and for “cat” people…they are diffidently recommended by your cat. ( )
This is an anthology or collection of stories where the cat is the main character. Mystery oriented and short in length they are really enjoyable and varied. Detective, felon, observer...the variety is there but the main character is the Cat. They are sharp and observant and ca be protective or self sufficient...whatever it takes to survive. Each story is a compact story that thakes just afew pages. A Great read if you just have short bursts of time to read or justwant a short recess from life. The author list is from well known to those that are just good writers. Pronzini,Collins, Jance and more, the stories are all funa nd interesting to read. A book that is good to take your time with and enjoy the short crimes within... ( )
