<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Trouble literally lands in Jim Qwilleran's own backyard when the local theatre's universally disliked director is found dead in Qwilleran's apple orchard. Qwilleran and his two feline detectives search for an actor who is playing the part of a killer. "Some of the most witty original fare in the genre".--New York Daily News.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The stage is set for Jim Qwilleran and his cats, Koko and Yum Yum, to solve a puzzling mystery in this <i>New York Times</i> bestseller in the Cat Who series. <p/></b>All the world's a stage--and now Jim Qwilleran's apple orchard has become the stage for a real-life murder scene. The much-disliked director of the Pickax Theatre Club's Shakespeare production, Hilary VanBrook, has been found dead after the closing-night cast party. With the help of his super-smart Siamese, Qwill must cast a suspicious eye on all the players--especially the ones pussyfooting around behind the scenes...<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for Lilian Jackson Braun and the Cat Who series</b> <p/>"A master of mystery."--<i>People</i> <p/>"Upbeat prose and amiable characters."--<i>Publishers Weekly</i> <p/>"The mix of crime and cats [is] catnip to readers who like both."--<i>Chicago Sun-Times</i> <p/>"Braun keeps both paws on the side of charming."--<i>Los Angeles Times</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>The history of <b>Lilian Jackson Braun</b> is perhaps as exciting and mysterious as her novels. Between 1966 and 1968, she published three novels to critical acclaim: <i>The Cat Who Could Read Backwards, The Cat Who Ate Danish Modern</i>, and <i>The Cat Who Turned On and Off</i>. In 1966, the<i> New York Times</i> labeled Braun, "the new detective of the year." Then, for reasons unknown, the rising mystery author disappeared from the publishing scene. It wasn't until 1986 that Berkley Publishing Group reintroduced Braun to the public with the publication of an original paperback, <i>The Cat Who Saw Red</i>. Within two years, Berkley released four new novels in paperback and reprinted the three mysteries from the sixties. Since then, G.P. Putnam's Sons has published seventeen additional novels in the Cat Who series. Braun passed away in 2011.
