Injured in battle with the Dark Raiders, sixteen-year-old Tebriel is healed by a colony of talking otters and sets out to fight the Dark and its forces of evil in the world of Tirror.
"Of course I worry. What if the cops witness a cat opening a skylight and masterminding a robbery? The tabloids will love it." There's a new pair of thieves in Molena Point, California, a renegade yellow-eyed tomcat with a cold disdain for the law, and a scruffy human partner who is no better. The two, clever and silent at their work, are bad news indeed to crime-solving cats Joe Grey and Dulcie. But when Joe learns the pair's connection to a good friend, and then an innocent couple turns up dead in the library garden, Joe and Dulcie must engage in some fancy paw work to unmask the deceptions and route the real killer -- before his brazen criminal crime spree careens madly toward them.
The story features Joe Grey, a formidable gray cat who can understand and communicate with humans, enjoying his newfound abilities. His life takes an interesting turn when his friend Dulcie undergoes a similar transformation, gaining the ability to hear human speech. However, Dulcie's belief in the words she hears leads to unexpected complications, adding a layer of intrigue to their feline adventures. Together, they navigate the challenges and peculiarities of their enhanced communication skills.
