Very Good. 0812516826 0812516826 From Library Journal In the first of a projected series, Douglas enters the feline-as-protagonist subgenre. Midnight Louie, whose cat-memoirs bracket the discovery of a murdered book publisher at the American Booksellers Association meeting, "helps" public relations person Temple Barr discover the murderer's identity. Las Vegas provides a slightly surreal backdrop for Temple's smooth friends and sly acquaintances, who alternately provide assistance or muck things up. Midnight Louie's viewpoint adds humor (the Baker & Taylor cats have Scottish accents) without straining the reader's credibility too much, so share this with Braun fans and other librarians. Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. From Kirkus Reviews Why would the killer of detestable publisher Chester Royal, after dispatching him with a knitting needle at the American Booksellers' convention in Las Vegas, tag him with a note reading ``STET, '' and then, for good measure, kidnap a pair of cats, the corporate mascots of rival imprint Baker & Taylor? Clearly no-nonsense Lt. R. C. Molina, one unsympathetic female, isn't interested, so it's up to PR frontwoman Temple Barr, still smarting from the recent disappearance of her magician lover, to dig up the motive from Chester's client/victims and old friends (ha)--aided at crucial moments by Midnight Louie, a big black tomcat who fancies himself another Philip Marlowe but who writes (yes, those interpolated chapters are written in his voice) like a pulp novelist who's been force-fed a dictionary. Reassuringly predictable feminine flutters and detection (``I didn't expect to be found out, '' the killer obligingly announces on being unmasked)--but Midnight Louie adds a fatal dose of the cutes. Douglas (Good Night, Irene, 1991, etc. ) is already at work on a sequel that should appeal to cats everywhere. --Copyright? 1992, Kirkus Associates, LP.
