The Egyptian Cat Mystery

A Rick Brant Science Adventure

De: John Blaine

Narrado por: J.J. Campanella

In Chicago, a man whispers into a telephone: “The cat is ready.” With those four words, a chain of perilous events begins—pulling Rick Brant and his friend Don Scott into ten days of danger, intrigue, and suspense.

Their official mission takes them to Egypt, where they join radio astronomers struggling to decipher strange, otherworldly signals. The anomalies defy explanation—neither terrestrial interference nor natural phenomena can account for them. The signals appear to come from light-years away, pulsing with a rhythm unlike any known star, and moving at an impossible speed.

But the mystery of the skies is soon overshadowed by a far stranger puzzle on the ground. Before leaving the United States, Rick and Scotty are asked to deliver a small plastic cat figurine to a man in Cairo—a request that seems harmless, until they find themselves pursued, harassed, and even kidnapped by ruthless adversaries determined to claim the object at any cost.

Why would anyone threaten lives for a cheap plastic cat? The answer lies hidden in Egypt, where ancient secrets and modern science collide.
