Praise for the New York Times bestselling Cat in the Stacks Mysteries "Let us now praise the cozy mystery, so comforting on dark days, so warming on chilly nights-the literary equivalent of a cat."- The New York Times Book Review "Courtly librarian Charlie Harris and his Maine Coon cat, Diesel, are an endearing detective duo. Will one of these ladies wind up on the sheriff's naughty list? Charlie and Diesel have to wrap up the case before the special season is ruined by a sinister scrooge. Though attempts to dig into her past come up empty, Charlie and his girlfriend, Helen Louise, witness two heated exchanges involving Gerry before her death- one with a leading citizen and another with the wife of a good friend. Determined to make her mark on Athena, Gerry instead winds up dead at her very own party. With Diesel's help, Charlie welcomes the tiny felines into the Harris household just as Gerry decides it is time to throw a lavish holiday party. Charlie finds a box on his doorstep with five kittens inside and a note begging him to keep them safe. The last thing Charlie expects is to gain several new additions to his family. He is doing his best to show some peace and goodwill toward his nosy neighbor Gerry Arbitron, a real estate agent who seems to have designs on his house (and maybe on him, as well), while preparing for a very important role, indeed-his first Christmas as a grandfather. December twenty-fifth is right around the corner, and Charlie is making his list and checking it twice.
