Paws for Murder... The man who threw his cat at his dentist... Doug Perkins, his partner Gerry and their cat, Pandora, have one job to do: spin gaffes into gold. But this cozy little London PR agency--a better environment for Pandora than profits--is about to get involved in a disastous affaire dentaire..Endicott Zayle, dentist to the rich and famous--as well as to Doug and Gerry--has a problem with royal proportions. He just killed a beautiful women with an experimental anesthetic. Or did he? By the time Doug arrives on the scene, the corpse is up and walking around--and someone else is dead instead. With Endicott losing his grip, and a line of women all claiming personal interest in the deceased, scandal is afoot. And so is a second dose of murder. For Doug, Perry and Pandora, making this mess look good will mean sorting through an old man's madness, a young man's foolishness, and a tooth-and-nail case of cat fighting--no holds barred...
Marion Babson writes bright and breezy mysteries with a cozy feel. In this case the PR firm of Perkins and Tate faces the true test of public relations-- putting a favorable spin on the death of a public figure in their dentist's chair. Surrounded by a plethora of eccentrics including Malcolm-- the dentist's father, who still thinks a world war is going on-- I or II, he isn't picky; the dentist's wife who was not so much stolen by the dentist's partner as barrowed; and the dentist himself who is quite single minded when it comes to things dental.This is is a fun and not particularly serious novel that will happily pass an hour or two.
