Until one day, everything changes. He crosses paths with Richard.
Richard isn’t doing so well. Grieving the loss of his partner, he’s turned his back on hope and is ready to end it all. But his plans are halted when Frankie the cat is injured on his doorstep.
Frankie needs help. But then, so does Richard. What Richard doesn’t know is that Frankie is no ordinary cat.
It’s an unlikely partnership. But it might be exactly what they both need . . .

A sometimes scurrilous, thoroughly smart and somewhat eccentric book * Goslarsche Zeitung *
This novel is an almost perfect balancing-act of joie de vivre and death wish, light-heartedness and heartbreaking sorrow * Der Stern *
A droll, enchanting and moving story about an unusual friendship, and finding your way back to life * Mein Magazin *
Amidst gruff dialogue, philosophical anecdotes and situational comedy, a close friendship blossoms between man and beast. A melancholic but nevertheless entertaining story * Berliner Morgenpost *
A light-pawed novel for when the world isn’t as it should be * Kulturtipp *
