#Hygge hour set up. Hot chocolate, a slice of stollen, and some light reading. It‘s a busy week ahead and I need the kind of strength only a slice of cake can give.

Revisiting this one, I promptly remembered it wasn‘t one of favorites. However, it was interesting to listen again, knowing the outcome. Paraphrasing Polly‘s remark, “There is some good in the worst of us, and some bad in the best of us.” There is little black and white in this story, which I appreciated more this time around.
I love this series! Lilian Jackson Braun was such a talented writer. There is so much more complexity than one would expect from a cozy, and Quill is a perfectly drawn 50-year-old bachelor. Comfortable in his bachelorhood, former journalist with journalism still in his blood, and slave to his imperious Siamese cats.
Of course George Guidall's reading is perfect, as well.
