      About This Book

      Qwilleran and the cats are visiting an island known by many names. Qwill has always called it Breakfast Island, but to the taciturn natives, its Providence Island. To the rich summer residents it's Grand Island--and to the developers and tourists who are turning this once-peaceful place upside down, its Pear Island. But when some odd "accidents" occur, including a fatal boat explosion, Qwill suspects sabotage and sets out to investigate--because murder by any other name is just as deadly...

      Meet prizewinning reporter Jim Qwilleran and his extraordinary Siamese cats, Koko and Yum Yum--the most unlikely, most unusual, most delightful team in detective fiction!
