Lilian Jackson Braun, best known for her Cat Who… cozy mystery series, also contributed short stories to several mystery anthologies over the years. These multi-author collections pair her work with stories by other mystery writers, and many of them have a cat or animal theme that fits naturally with Braun’s style.
Sisters in Crime 3 (1990) and Mystery Cats (1991) both appeared during the height of Braun’s popularity, when she was publishing Cat Who… novels at a steady pace. Tar Heel Dead (2005) is a North Carolina-themed mystery anthology, while Feline Felonies (2006) returns to the cat mystery genre. Each book is a standalone collection, and Braun’s contributions can be enjoyed without any knowledge of her novel series.
