Aus dem Klappentext

'Varjak Paw,' hissed Sally Bones. 'The cat who thinks he can fight.'
There are Seven Skills that give a cat great power, and Varjak Paw knows them all. He can fight, he can hunt, he can walk unseen.
There's just one problem, Sally Bones, the thin white cat who leads the city's deadliest gang, also knows the Skills. She knows even more than Varjak does. And now she's coming to get him. . .
'You will be an outlaw now, Varjak Paw -- and there will be no place to hide!'
'KEEP THE WAY ALIVE, VARJAK PAW!'
