This is a wonderful fantasy mystery. An actor, falling in an "accident" intended to kill him, collides with a cat, and they exchange brains. The actor in a cat body must attempt to figure out who is trying to kill him, and how to get back into his own body. Babson is quite clever in exploring the distinctions between what follows from the body and the mind. There is a wonderful, evocative sentence expressing the frustrations of being a small animal. A book I have found very memorable. I generally like Babson as a reliably amusing author when I want a fun read, but this is something special. ( )
