FANDOM: Master Cat; or Puss in Boots – Charles Perrault
FIC LINK: The Cat's Sleuth
AUTHOR LINK: [archiveofourown.org profile] dreamiflame [archiveofourown.org profile] Rosencrantz
RATING/WARNING(S): General Audiences.
WIP?/WORD COUNT: 2387 | Complete.
MAIN CHARACTERS: Puss in Boots
FIC SUMMARY: Puss’s owner dies and leaves him to the youngest son, who’s gone and fallen for a dame well above his station. It’s up to Puss to unite the two loves and solve the case of a stolen jewel in the process. And maybe, just maybe, get himself a sweet life on easy street.

First in the Two-Booted Tales series.

RECCER'S NOTES: A fairy tale AU where Puss is a hardboiled 'tec. Of course, with the tale involving a boot wearing cat the perp isn't run of the mill either. Great use of noirish dialogue makes the tale a pleasure.

Wonderful! Then again, this fic combines two of my favorite things (fairy tales and film noir) so that may be why I enjoyed it so much.
