I think that this is the first book in the series that I have read. The story wasn't that interesting. I didn't care about any of the suspects. The main character, Alice, was ok. But her investigation seemed very simplistic, and it didn't seem to take much to solve the case. In fact, at the end of the book, I didn't believe the motive behind the murders. It seemed to be over such a strange thing. I have another one of this series that I already bought, so I will give it a try. Overall it wasn't a bad book, it just wasn't great. It was an ok way to spend a few hours. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

"Alice Nestleton - a beautiful off-broadway star who pays her bills by cat-sitting between stage roles - has a special talent for detection. She's as crafty as Miss Marple, as ingenious as Hercule Poirot, and as cunning as...well, a cat. Now Alice is adding housesitting to her resume as she heads for a seaside mansion in the Hamptons." "Fateful events begin with Alice attending a poetry reading at a neighboring beach house. Liquor is flowing, bon mots are being bandied, and recitations are offered by a lecherous local artist, an unpublished cookbook writer, a flamboyant hostess, a pretty poet, and a rich novelist. The evening ends with a bang when a booby-trapped car blows the poet to kingdom come - and Alice into the role of prime suspect." "While Alice knows the police are digging in the wrong litter box, she's determined to find out who made the poet go to pieces. Her only clue is a bell-wearing feral cat she saw shortly before the explosion. Yet everyone denies the cat exists. Then a second killing and threats against her own life convince Alice to trap the culprit by "belling the cat" in a risky scheme. Now all Alice needs to stay alive is to know the right time to pounce."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
