The Cat Who Ate Danish Modern

By Lilian Jackson Braun

Jim Qwilleran and his cat Koko get a taste of trouble in the second mystery in the bestselling Cat Who series.

Jim Qwilleran isn't exactly overwhelmed by his new assignment for the Daily Fluxion. Interior design has never been one of his specialties and now he's supposed to turn out an entire magazine on the subject every week! But the first issue of Gracious Abodes is barely off the presses when Qwilleran finds himself back on more familiar territory--the exclusive residence featured on the cover has been burglarized and the lady of the house found dead.

Now Qwilleran and his brilliant Siamese cat, Koko, have their respective moustache and whiskers twitching. And when Koko starts pawing clues in the dictionary and sniffing designer furniture, Qwilleran finds himself doing a feature on a very clever murder...

As a lover of cats, this series is super cute. I read this book in literally half a day. Such cute stories and I love how the cats are involved. Can't wait to read the next and see what happens between Koko and his new sister <3
