Follow along through a tangled web of crime and intrigue as Kitty tries to solve the case.

Turner Classic Movies

“The hardboiled detective spoof is nothing new to picture books, but ‘Czar of Noir’ Muller and Schmidt, both making children’s book debuts, accomplish something more with this noir-style send-up licensed with Turner Classic Movies: nurturing an appreciation for one of cinema’s greatest genres.”
Publishers Weekly
“In his new book, Kitty Feral and the Case of the Marshmallow Monkey, Noir Alley host Eddie Muller puts a frisky twist on a noir-ish tale of a detective feline sniffing out a mystery.”
