Liverpool, 1935-where the fog is thick, the mysteries are thicker, and the boundaries between worlds are wafer-thin.
At the unassuming Dale Street Private Investigations Agency, former librarian Jessie Harper has traded her quiet life for one of spectral secrets and eerie enigmas. Her companion, Khan, is a sleek black cat with emerald eyes and a penchant for revealing truths that defy imagination.
But Khan isn't just a clever feline-he's an ancient being with roots in the mystic sands of Egypt, a vessel for powers long lost to time. When Khan decides it's time for Jessie to hear his story, she's swept into a breathtaking tale of forgotten gods, sacred rituals, and secrets that tremble on the edge of the impossible.
With spectral visions, cryptic hieroglyphs, and an unravelling bond between mortal and immortal, The Cat's Tale is a spellbinding cozy mystery where the mundane meets the magical, and curiosity might just rewrite the rules of reality itself.
