Plot introduction

The Old Hulk, being developed for a senior center, mysteriously burns to the ground. Meanwhile, a young woman dies from a bee sting—or could it have been murder? Qwill's lady friend, Polly Duncan, goes to Paris and decides to stay there. Later, Qwill's apple barn residence is burned by fire.

Reception

The author, Lilian Jackson Braun, died June 4, 2011 making The Cat Who Had 60 Whiskers her final book.

Sally Estes, of Booklist reviewed the book saying, "A welcome chance to revisit Moose County for regulars, but don't expect passer-by to stick around.[1] Dave Roy, of Curled Up, reviewed the book saying, "Give The Cat Who Had 60 Whiskers a miss, because it's something the cat hacked up."[2] Marge Fletcher, of Book Reporter reviewed the book saying, "Throughout the book, on the lefthand side of certain new paragraphs, there are drawings of a cat paw. These serve to remind the audience that Koko and Yum Yum are the real stars of the series, as they provide an interesting and creative leitmotif for the reader's enjoyment"[3]

gollark: Yemmel wanted an alt with which to play on the server as a normal player. The staff deliberately cultivated the lemmmy = yemmel meme for ages to prevent people actually taking it seriously.
gollark: Anyway, this whole situation was contrived completely to try and discredit us being the same. Remember how Lemmmy first came about?
gollark: Their username says so and they're me so they know things.
gollark: They never said anything about this but never denied it, fearing the consequences if this got out. But I trust you to make your own reasonable choices with this information.
gollark: Why would I randomly bother my alt? They're clearly busy.
