With her freedom on the line and suspicion following her, Narel needs all the help she can get. Fortunately, her formidable feline companion has a few tricks up his furry sleeves. But will even his unique talents be enough to keep Narel out of handcuffs? And just who is the mysterious woman lurking around the edges of this puzzle?
