The solution to the main mystery came more out of nowhere than it normally does in these books, so it was anti-climactic. Braun seemed to forgo much of the investigating this time, in favor of yet another weather-related local disaster. Add to that the frustration that a death in the book had no resolution of any kind, not even speculation or a mention of the fact that it would have to remain a mystery. It was just dropped. I do like that Qwilleran was able to compare his tendency to half-believe that Koko's antics helping him solve mysteries could be compared to the locals who firmly believe in UFOs, though he always leaves room for the possibility that everything Koko does is just a coincidence. I'm still enjoying my trip through this series of fairly quick reads and hope the next will be better. ( ) While his girlfriend is in Canada for a month, Quill plans to stay at his lakeside cabin. Many residents in the area of are sure UFOs are common visitors. When a young backpacker appears to be missing the talk around town is that it was an extraterrestrial kidnapping! When Koko finds the body in a sand dune the new question is how did he get there? Qwill goes on the hunt for clues. Only Steven Spielberg as creator of ET could find me charmed by a story about an Extra-Terrestrial and Lilian Jackson Braun as creator of "The Cat Who... Series" could find me enchanted by a story with the possibilities of UFO sightings in Mooseville. I simply love this series from the author's continued dedication of each novel to "The husband who..." to reading the next adventure of James (Qwill to his friends) Qwilleran, to the sleuthing feline assistance by clue master Koko and the lovely and playful Yum Yum, to all of the other secondary characters that make this series so captivating to read. I can best describe reading a novel in this series to my pleasure at eating chocolate. I savor each piece but am always ready for another. For the series, I can hardly believe I've read over 1/2 the series already and I've enjoyed each and every one. Thankfully, there are a few more treats and I know each one will be entertaining. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Fiction.
Mystery.
Braun's marvelous best-selling series is the cat's pajamas for lovers of animals and frisky crime-solving adventures. This delightful addition finds Qwill and his fabulous felines on the trail of some very unusual "visitors." Could extraterrestrials be behind the strange goings-on in Moose County? It is up to the ever-humble billionaire journalist Jim Qwilleran and his amazing cats to find out. A backpacker has disappeared, and rumor has it that UFOs are responsible. Meanwhile, an unprecedented knitting craze has taken hold in the remote community of Pickax. Perhaps most eerily of all, Koko, whose insights Qwill has learned to trust, is spending hours sitting on the porch watching the sky. It is no wonder that Lilian Jackson Braun's "Cat Who" series is one of the most popular and longest-running of all time. Always entertaining, Braun's quirky characters quickly endear themselves to readers young and old. Guidall lends just the right light-hearted tone to this series the whole family can enjoy.
