Förlagets beskrivning
The USA TODAY Bestselling Series . . . Now in Library/Bookstore Edition Laminated Hardcover! “TEMPLE BARR, public relations whiz, rocks Las Vegas with her sleuthing grit, wacky friends and sexy guys, cool cat sidekick, fast-paced action and laughs. And Midnight Louie is the funniest, hairiest hard-boiled PI on the planet!”—JANET EVANOVICH, NYT bestseller Readers are biting their nails as the popular alphabetic Midnight Louie feline PI mystery series nears its end with this 26th entry. Even then, Las Vegas's hairiest sleuth (whose feline-noir voice has been compared to Hammett, Hammer, and Nathan Detroit) will not be hanging up his fedora. Taking the spotlight this time is the Las Vegas reunion show of a groundbreaking multi-ethnic band that revives a deadly duel between its two divas. Now petite PR powerhouse Temple Barr and her faithful feline roommate, Midnight Louie, must sniff out clues to save the Crystal Phoenix hotel's reputation and any at-risk lives, including their own. Tabloid newspaperss went wild over the shocking disappearance of Black & White's two singing divas and flamboyant manager years earlier. The women made comebacks, but manager Cale Watson was never seen again. As murder stalks the rehearsing band members, Temple moves into the celebrity hotel suites to uncover sabotage, while Louie and the Vegas Cat Pack sniff out clues like, um, dogs. Meanwhile, Temple's ex, magician Max Kinsella, makes a shocking decision that will impact more lives than his. Deadly encounters and unexpected reunions force all the main characters into unforeseen loss and disclosure, the suspense leavened by Douglas's characteristic wit and heart. For sleuths and suspects, it all comes down to the black and white lies that destroy hopes, lives, and family. The penultimate book, Cat in a Zebra Zoot Suit, is followed by series closer, Cat in an Alphabet End Game. (The series' first two non-alphabetic titles, Catnap and Pussyfoot, have been reissued in ebook as Cat in an Alphabet Soup and Cat in an Aqua Storm.) FUN, FROTHY AND CHARMING"—Publishers Weekly "So in this typically fun-filled, witty and comic Midnight Louie outing, Douglas tackles a multitude of serious and topical issues [including] monogamy, celibacy, sexual responsibility and familial responsibility, theology, stalking, sanity and lack of same, honor and commitment, and the keeping of vows and trusts."—Mostly Murder on Cat in a Flamingo Fedora "The always engaging Midnight Louie prowls the alleys of Las Vegas solving crimes and romancing runaways like a furry Sam Spade."—People magazine "Nine lives wouldn't be nearly enough for this dude."—Publishers Weekly "glitters and snaps like the town that inspire
