But then a bomb explodes in her room, killing the hotel housekeeper—and now Qwill and his kitty sidekicks, Koko and Yum Yum, must put aside the fun and figure out who cooked up this murderous recipe...

She’s convinced foul play is involved and works to save the Longhorn from being “put down.” Will she solve the murder and save the Longhorn?
