The Yellow Cat Mystery

In The Yellow Cat Mystery, amateur sleuth Djuna visits his friend Tommy in Florida. His yellow cat has a sore tooth, and they set off to see the dentist. The dentist is new to the town and doesn’t seem to be able to help them. They do, however, notice two persons who came from a mysterious black-lacquered ship at sea—and a normal day suddenly becomes an unusual adventure.

“Ellery Queen clearly is, after Poe, the most important American in mystery fiction.”—Otto Penzler, editor of Best American Mystery Stories, praise for the author
