City of Belmont - Ruth Faulkner Public Library

THE FIRST BOOK IN THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING CAT IN THE STACKS MYSTERY SERIES which Introduces the appealing, crime-solving duo: genial librarian Charlie Harris, and his rescue cat, gentle giant, Diesel.No good library is complete without a great cat...and an even better detective. Home for the first time in years, librarian Charlie Harris and his walking companion, Maine Coon cat, Diesel, have become familiar sights on the streets of small town Athena, Mississippi. All Charlie wants to do is devote himself to the books in his care, but those plans are shelved when he finds himself enmeshed in the claws of a true murder-mystery...Charlie's absolutely dreadful old classmate-turned-celebrated author, Godfrey Priest, has also descended upon Athena. Fame certainly hasn't changed Godfrey; if anything, he's more obnoxious than he was when they were young. In one day, he's put one man in the hospital; before the next dawn, he's dead! Charlie and Diesel must investigate a seemingly endless supply of motivated suspects to trap the real killer before an innocent is falsely purr-secuted!
