From the Back Cover:
Paws For Murder...
The man who threw his cat at his dentist...
Doug Perkins, his partner Gerry, and their cat, Pandora, have one job to do: spin gaffes into gold. But this cozy little London P.R. agency-a better environment for Pandora than profits-is about to get involved in a disastrous affaire dental... Endicott Zayle, dentist to the rich and famous-as well as to Doug and Gerry-has a problem of royal proportions: he just killed a beautiful woman with an experimental anesthetic. Or did he?
By the time Doug arrives on the scene, the corpse is up and walking around--and someone else is dead instead. With Endicott losing his grip, and a line of women all claiming a personal interest in the deceased, scandal is afoot. And so is a second dose of murder. For Doug, Gerry, and Pandora, making this mess look good will mean sorting through an old man's madness, a young man's foolishness, and a tooth-and-nail case of cat fighting-no holds barred...
