The Mangy Detective R Klemek

Snowball is the son of a humble museum curator and Bastet, the Egyptian cat goddess. He's also a lazy P. I. with an insatiable libido and a habit of crossing ethical boundaries with his clients. Some would even say he's more gigolo than detective. That all changes when a client's wife turns up dead, and Snowball becomes a suspect in her murder. This means he must put aside chasing raccoons, taking naps in the middle of the afternoon, and hooking up with lonely cat-obsessed neighbors long enough to solve the case himself. In the process, he has to go up against angry skunks, slobbering dogs, bitter ex-lovers, incompetent police, a nosey gossip columnist, and a mob chef who bakes rare animals into casseroles. Luckily, Snowball has nine lives.
