Cat Humor

Laura Babler is not the adventurous type, she prefers to know exactly what’s coming. So when she’s forced to drive cross-country to her own wedding—alone, anxious, and scared shitless of the autobahn—she’s already far outside her comfort zone. Then she meets Sir Cat. A dramatic, scruffy black cat out for revenge derails her journey before it even starts. Her simple overnight road trip spirals out of control, with one disaster leading to another, and the duo find themselves stranded in the middle of nowhere.

At first, it’s just a cat. Aloof. Judgmental. Stares at the corner of the room like it’s watching something I can’t see. Normal cat stuff. Then he starts leaving the flat at night. Coming back smelling like incense and damp carpet. Then I find the symbol. Then the meetings. Then the gentle but very firm suggestion that I’m holding him back from his destiny. ...
