The cats keep the ancient bargain.
They are still among us, hidden here and there; the cats who remember the Old Compact: you provide a home for us, feed us, take care of us in our illness, and we will protect you from the dangers of the night. They operate below the sight lines of humanity, dealing with dangers that we would never notice until it was too late. They remember the old magics of Freya, Bast and Hecate. They are the Guardian Cats. Shin-Nephura is the Guardian Cat of the neighborhood of Inwood, at the northern point of Manhattan. And tonight, something terrible has crawled out of the Hudson River to prey on sleeping two-legs of the neighborhood she protects. Something that may be too much for her to handle.
The Guardian Cats of New York City: Shin-Nephura’s Neighborhood is available for free Kindle download through this Friday, August 19, and after that is only 99 cents. And it’s available for free on Kindle Unlimited now and forever. Check it out and leave a review!
