He ruled the village with his money and crossed nearly all of the villagers in the process. So when he is found dead one November morning with a bread knife in his back, the chief of police faces a long line of suspects. Was it the new librarian, angered by Farrs threat to close the library? Was it the schoolteacher, whose pupil he threatened? Or perhaps his son, who he disinherited just before his death?</p><p>Reporter Killian McBean is also among the list, since Farr was planning to foreclose on the Cognac Courier and put him out of a job. But, as the cops are befuddled by too many motives, Killians journalistic acumen cuts through the noise in search of the real storyeven if, in the end, its his cat Smoky that discovers the essential clue that leads to its solution.</p><p>Never before issued in paperback in unabridged form, <em>Blood on the Cat</em> is a lost classic worthy of rediscovery, with memorable characters, fair-play clues, and a cat thats as clever as it is charming. Cozy in subject matter, its sure to please any fan of Golden Age detective fiction.</p>...9781613166642_Penzler Publisherslibro_electonico_9781613166642_9781613166642Erle StanleyInglésMéxico2025-06-03T00:00:00+00:00https://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/wwnorton-epub-01268240-3ded-47b6-bff7-bb167f455366.epub2025-06-03T00:00:00+00:00Penzler Publishers
