Books with title Time to Smell the Roses: A Hermux Tantamoq Adventure

This second book, The Sands of Time, continues the adventures of Hermux Tantamoq, mouse and watchmaker in the imaginary city of Pinchester. When the museum announces a show of Mirrin Stentrill's latest paintings (monumental, visionary portraits of cats) Mayor Hooter Pinkwiggin vows to shut it down. Cats are touchy subject among Pinchester's mostly small-rodent population. But while militant mice organize to stop the show, most of Pinchester's stylish set is vying for invitations to the gala opening. Complications arise when a mysterious chipmunk named Birch Tentintrotter claims to have a map to the royal library of an ancient kingdom of cats. When Birch recruits Hermux to help him find the library, they discover they're not the only ones looking for it!

There’s something prickly going on in the town of Thorny End, and as Hermux Tantamoq is about to discover, it’s not just the roses. When rose magnate Androse deRosenquil asks him to take on an intriguing missing squirrel case, Hermux can’t say no—and before he knows it, he’s caught up in a mystery involving mutant bees, a rose fragrance rivalry starring cosmetics tycoon Tucka Mertslin, and strange incidents taking place on an uninhabited island with a troubled past. With the help of his fiancée, aviatrix Linka Perflinger, talented pet ladybug, Terfle, and a rebellious teenage squirrel named Twigg, Hermux must uncover what’s really happening on the island, find the missing squirrel and save the day—and deRosenquil’s roses— without getting stung in the process.

Watchmaker, Hermux Tantamoq, fresh from his first adventure (TIME STOPS FOR NO MOUSE), is drawn into another intrigue when his artist friend, Mirrin Stentrill's exhibition of cat paintings incites a riot. Cats are a taboo subject in Pinchester as Mirrin's friend, chipmunk Birch Tentintrotter knows well - he was run out of town decades ago when he deciphered an ancient map of the Kingdom of the Cats. Birch's return with another old scroll leads to a fast and thrilling adventure.
