Timmy is in Key West, Florida, ostensibly for the honeymoon of his mother and Doorman Dave – if they even got married, which Timmy doubts. Unfortunately for Timmy, crime doesn’t take a holiday. And because Total has fled to Cuba, Timmy must rely on a new partner for help: Doorman Dave’s nephew Emilio.

Meanwhile, a surprise newcomer shows up in Timmy’s life and, as if things couldn’t get more hectic, Timmy’s pants have been stolen by a six-toed cat.

Timmy Failure: The Cat Stole My Pants by Stephan Pastis delivers more of the hilarious misadventures fans of the series have come to love. Join Timmy for another round of unpredictable antics and mystery-solving as he navigates the chaos of Key West.
