Cat in a Quicksilver Caper by Carole Nelson Douglas

Midnight Louie, Las Vegas' sassiest and fluffiest PI, finds himself literally walking a tightrope when a museum opening at one of the swankiest casinos is marred by a little thing like death. Louie's roommate, feisty PR freelancer Temple Barr, has snagged the commission of her career: repping the opening exhibition of the Russian Czars' priceless treasures at the New Millennium Hotel, the apex of which is the Czar Alexander Scepter, a priceless artifact. Trouble is, the hotel has booked an aerial magic act right above the exhibition. Temple works at a breakneck pace to coordinate this logistical nightmare. Tragedy ensues when someone dies right above where the collection will be displayed and the police threaten to shut everything down. But the word "no" isn't one heard often in Las Vegas. Just as things seem to be working perfectly, another performer dies...and the scepter vanishes. The culprits could be international art thieves, Russian mafiosi, or Chechen rebels out to embarrass the current Russian government. Or it could be someone else, perhaps someone Temple knows all too well: Can fancy footwork and detection save our intrepid duo? The previous books of these authors include: "Cat in a Hot Pink Pursuit", "Cat in a Orange Twist", "Cat in a Neon Nightmare", and "Cat in a Kiwi".
"Midnight Louie is the funniest, hairiest, hard boiled PI on the planet" Janet Evanovich, New York Times bestselling author of Eleven on Top. "Douglas just keeps getting better at juggling mystery, humour, and romance."
