The Cat Who Wasn't There

Persuaded by Polly Duncan, his beloved companion, to join her in a group tour of Scotland, Qwill expects to revel in his Scottish heritage while keeping Polly safe from the Pickax Prowler. Instead, his trip is cut short when a thief swipes a suitcase, the bus driver disappears, and a fellow tourist is found dead—all in the same day.

Although the town of Pickax is in a tizzy over the recent events, Qwill has other, more puzzling worries on his mind: Who is the fellow still following Polly? Why is Koko licking Qwill's photographs of Scotland and tackling him on the apple barn stairs? Upon investigating the secret life of the deceased and the bizarre behavior of one of the tour's members, Qwill's sensitive moustache tells him one thing: more trouble is on the way.

The cat that wasn’t there

The cats & their owner. The son who had not died years ago & showed up in town

Great twisting story

the main character interesting characters and relationships, emphasis on Scotland, the endearing, humorous and creative role of the cats

The cats

I love the whole series the cats the most. Q I think he's magnificent The supporting characters of great The story is just laid out so smooth.

Story seemed disjointed

I found the book a bit odd in the plot. Did not keep my interest through much of the story. Then it seemed the ending was rushed. Not one of the better Cat novels I’ve had the pleasure to listen too.
