Just Lost and Found, a Lucy Fong hysterical mystery by Anne R Tan.
Trying to do a favor for her sister, Lucy is pet sitting for the cat despite being highly allergic. Enter Mel Brooks/Marx Brothers/Chevy Chase. First she falls through the floor of a local landmark and is injured but finds a historic Chinese artifact, THEN she gets a ransom note from catnappers. And the laughs just keep on coming. I LOVED it! ( )
