When Law Meets Paw...The result is this delightful anthology of seventeen courtroom tales by top-notch mystery writers. Cats and mysteries go hand-in-hand, no doubt. After all, what other animal is as mysterious as the common - yet never ordinary - house cat? What lurks behind that smug expression? What hidden secrets belie that indifferent stare?
