Jim Qwilleran - a prize-winning reporter and Moose County's richest resident has a nose for crime. Koko - a Siamese cat with extraordinary talents and a flair for mystery. Yum Yum - a lovable Siamese adored by her two male companions. The most unlikely, most unusual, most delightful team in detective fiction!
Pickax's favourite columnist, James Qwilleran, is enjoying a brief holiday with Koko and Yum Yum at the Nutcracker Inn in the nearby town of Black Creek.
But it's not long before the blissful tranquillity is interrupted by the discovery of a body floating down the creek. And a possible motive for his murder is suggested when several gold nuggets are found in the man's possession. Might he have been illegally prospecting for gold in the Black Forest Conservancy, or perhaps beneath the creek? If so, it seems he wasn't the only one in search of an easy fortune. And his competitor is far more determined to strike it rich . . .
