Overcome by grief, he stands in his sister's kitchen staring at the only witness to what's happened to her -- her cat, Roger. Who then speaks to him. It takes a while for Alec to realize he's not gone mad from grief, that the cat is actually speaking . . . and that much of what we fear about cats is true. They do think they're smarter than humans, for one thing. And, well, it seems they are! What's more, they do have nine lives. Or at least this one does -- Roger's older than Methuselah, and his unblinking stare comes from the fact that he's seen it all. And he's got a tale to tell, a tale of shocking local history and dark forces that may link not only the death of Alec's wife, but also several other local deaths, as well as the disappearance of his sister. But will the cat help Alec, or is he one of the dark forces?"--From publisher's website.
