    This book is strong in character and story.

    Summary:
    If you are familiar with Braun's "the cat who" series, you know about Koko and Yum Yum, the investigative Siamese cats who belong to a newspaper man by the name of Quilleran. In the first books, of which this one, he is still working for a newspaper. Later, after his inheritance, he relocates and does his investigations as a wealthy man. Koko and Yum Yum are the cats with abilities beyond the ordinary cat. In this book, they help to uncover murder and mayhem among the antique dealers of "Junktown" at Christmas time. Enjoy the shopping.

    I would recommend this book!

    Why?
    The characters are "characters" and the kind of folk you might meet anywhere. Nothing for the deep thinker, but a light and entertaining mystery. This book on tape was read by George Guidall. He is very good and keeps you listening.

    Other suggested reading:
    If you enjoy light mystery and cats, you will like this series. I suggest you begin with the first book and work your way through. Otherwise, the changes in Quill's life will become confusing.
