## Description

A cosy murder mystery in which a cat helps solve the crime, this is a forgotten Golden Age classic. ‘ Expert sleuthing ’ - The Saturday Review Bennet Farr was the richest and most hated man in town, so when he is found dead, the list of those with a grudge grows endless. There’s the librarian, the journalist, the schoolteacher, and Bennet’s own son, who was struck off the family inheritance just days before Bennet’s death. How do catch a killer when everyone in town has a motive? The police are befuddled by the lack of evidence. And in the end, the key to solving the mystery is found not by them but by Bennet’s pet cat, Smoky. A lost classic worthy of rediscovery, this cosy mystery will delight any fan of Golden Age detective fiction.
