Inca headed the detective team in Inca & Company. The team comprises detectives, including Monk, Terrance, and Polo. Other members of the team are Inca's brother, Fromage; sister, Cara; their pet, Charlotte; then Missy, their human mother.

Inca & Company has been increasing in fame and excellent operations under the control of the smart Inca, the Syberian detective cat—solving problems that are characterized by detective complexities.

One day, Missy prepared a new cheese to be presented in the cooking contest organized by a French cookery school, Le Cordon Bleu. She would as well serve as the judge at the culinary chef competition between the South and North Korean participants. So, the whole detective team travels down to South Korea.

At the airport, Missy couldn't find the new cheese she'd produced. While another problem looms and portends greater danger, this is the first detective work for Inca & Company to find out the culprit in the missing cheese.

Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula by R.F.
Kristi is a children's novel that displays the adventure of problems and resolutions involved by seven animals having special detective abilities and under the guidance of their human mom, Missy. The smart Inca, who runs the affairs of the detective team, carries herself with a regal disposition and believes that she's perfect in all that she does.

The story is written from Inca's first-person perspective. She graciously tells of her adventure, which comprises her many memories of sweet moments—records of her intellectual work and awestruck achievements. She started by introducing herself, family members, and other members of her detective company. The oozing vibes with which the description of herself was made, coupled with the suspenseful story, grabbed me such that I was curious to unravel her probable accomplishments and know what she's really up to in her adventures.

The book is written to give a pleasurable reading experience for children. The background color and the picture of the animal characters make the book appealing. Furthermore, the writing is not hard for children to read because the sentences used are simple and were written in a few lines on each page.

The creativity of the author and the illustrator in terms of the book’s visual presentation is awesome. First, the image of the animals does not just show emotionless figures, but the looks in their eyes show excited emotion and a feeling of pride that could characterize the feeling of the highly self-esteemed children. Second, I love the format in which the writings are put; the writings, which do not look like the writing of serious formal work, would be well relatable to children.

Hence, I'd recommend the book to children between eight years and ten years old. However, early teen children would also enjoy it to pass the time.

I love the book wholeheartedly, as I enjoyed reading it. So, nothing to dislike about it. The author has a good command of language that makes her description come alive. The editing is done professionally, as I could only spot a few punctuation errors. Therefore, Cat Detectives in the Korean Peninsula earns a rating of 4 out of 4 stars from me.

This is one of the Cat Detective series. I like them. In this instalment, they were at the Korean republic and tried to unify a family. The narrative is original.

What thing that makes me like Children's books is the leadership mindset of Inca, he was so ordered in his dealing. Great review.

Excellent review. I also enjoyed the story of the animal detectives in Korea. I must say they were on a very risky mission.
