Lady Candling lives next door to Pip and Bets, and owns some very expensive, pedigree Siamese cats. When her most famous cat, Dark Queen, goes missing, the gardener's help, Luke seems the obvious suspect. Mr Goon and Mr Tupping, Lady Candling's gardener are sure he's the culprit, as he was digging by the cat house all alone when Dark Queen disappeared. The Five Find-Outers must solve the mystery to clear the name of their friend Luke. Strangely, Dark Queen soon reappears, dirty and tired, but unhurt. And stranger still, she disappears again a few days later, once more when only Luke could have done it. Piecing together clues of pale paint, turps and some wellington boots, the Five Find-Outers prove, once more with the help of Inspector Jenks, not only that Luke is innocent, but that Mr Tupping took Dark Queen and deliberately tried to frame Luke for the crime.

The second book to the series

This is the second book to the five findouter series written by Enid Blyton. As I have mentioned in my review to the first book (i.e: The Mystery of the Burnt Cottage), this series of books is probably Enid Blyton's best work, being very entertaining, having great plots, and definitely superior in quality when compared with the more flashily titled "Famous Five" and "Secret Seven". Recommended to readers of all ages... (I'm aged 21)

This book talks about the dissapearance and reappearance of an expensive cat. How does the cat dissapear? and what does it have to do with wet paint? Once again the children get together to solve the puzzle, leading to the apprehension of the criminal, and revelation of a great plot. And i'm thinking "Damn, not bad for only kids". The books creates a few laughs as the children successfully hamper Mr. Goon's progress in various ways (to his agony, and our entertainment).

A word to readers however, Dissapearing Cat is rather mundane compared to the remaining books in the series. However I highly recommend one read it before progressing to Book 3: The Mystery of the Secret Room, which is essentially where the fun begins in full throttle, and onwards to the other stories....

These books are for all...from age 8 to till your really really very old. ENJOY!

junior Whodunnit !

This is a great Junior detective story: the puzzle is not only who stole the cat, but how could they have done it.
There is a satisfying streak of logic in how the Find-Outers go about this mystery that appealed to my six-year-old daughter, and some fun distractions along the way.
Higly recommended.
