CAT IN AN ALIEN X-RAY, (A Forge Hardcover; $24.99; On-sale today!), the 25th volume in Carole Nelson Douglas’s much-beloved Midnight Louie series. The Midnight Louie books, which can all be read independently, follow everyone’s favorite feline private eye as he sniffs out the truth (and maybe some tuna!) on the Vegas Strip. Sure to make fans of Louie’s prior adventures as well as those new to the series purr in delight, this sassy installment follows Louie to Area 51 and back!
CAT IN AN ALIEN X-RAY takes the Las Vegas gang on a science fiction roller-coaster ride, as Midnight Louie and company encounter UFO enthusiasts – conspiracy nuts who are too bizarre even for tin foil hat therapy. An Area 51 attraction on the Strip threatens to bring more than starry-eyed enthusiasts to town. Once again it is up to that furballed PI Midnight Louie to keep his crew in line and save them from the attack of the creatures from the beyond… or common criminals that prey on the innocent.
Author Bio:
Award-winning ex-journalist and novelist Carole Nelson Douglas has written sixty novels ranging from historical and contemporary mystery and romance to science fiction thrillers to high and urban fantasy. No wonder her home office is a Twilight Zone landscape of mannequins in vintage dress.
She's a four-time Rita Award finalist and has RT Reviews Magazine lifetime achievement awards in Suspense, Mystery and as a Pioneer of Publishing. Currently, she writes two popular Las Vegas-set series: the Midnight Louie, feline PI, mysteries partially narrated by a "Sam Spade with hairballs" and the Delilah Street, Paranormal Investigator, noir urban fantasies of werewolf mobsters and Silver Screen zombies in a paranormal Sin City.
Douglas was the first author of a Sherlockian series with a female protagonist, diva-detective Irene Alder, the only woman to outwit Holmes, debuting with the New York Times Notable Book of the Year, Good Night, Mr. Holmes. Douglas says if she has a literary muse, it's definitely feline: mysterious, wise, playful, and packing sharp shivs in velvet gloves

I have read a few of the books earlier in the series and really enjoyed them. I need to catch up! I love that the main character is a cat. He is just like I imagine a cat to sound, smarter than everyone!
