I look like an all-American grad student. But I am a werecat,a shape-shifter, and I live in two worlds.

Despite reservations from my family and my Pride, I escapedthe pressure to continue my species and carved out a normallife for myself. Until the night a Stray attacked.

I'd been warned about Strays--werecats without a Pride,constantly on the lookout for someone like me: attractive,female and fertile. I fought him off, but then learned two ofmy fellow tabbies had disappeared.

This brush with danger was all my Pride needed to summonme back...for my own protection. Yeah, right. But I'm nomeek kitty. I'll take on whatever--and whoever--I have toin order to find my friends. Watch out, Strays--'cause I gotclaws, and I'm not afraid to use them....
