Order of Midnight Louie Books
Midnight Louie is the feline protagonist in two series of mystery novels by Carole Nelson Douglas. In the main Midnight Louie series, the feline sleuth teams up with a public relations freelancer named Temple Barr in Las Vegas, Nevada. In the earlier Cat and a Playing Card series, Midnight Louie goes solo.
The Cat and a Playing Card prequel series was originally published in 1990 as Crystal Days and Crystal Nights (collectively known as the Crystal Phoenix duology), with 40% of Midnight Louie’s chapters removed from the novels without approval from Douglas. Carole Nelson Douglas began the Midnight Louie series in 1992 with the novel Catnap. She followed it up with Pussyfoot the following year, and then each novel that followed began with “Cat.” The series concluded in 2016 with Cat in an Alphabet Endgame.
