The Cat Who Sniffed Glue is the eight book in The Cat Who Series by Lilian Jackson Braun, published in 1988.

Pickax City is first disrupted by vandalism, then by murder. Harley Fitch, vice-president of the Pickax Bank, and his wife, Belle, are found shot to death, and vandals from neighboring Chipmunk are suspected. After three suspects die in a car accident, the case is closed. But Qwilleran doesn't agree.
