My Cat Saw the Killer

Crime
Mystery

A perfect murder. An unlikely witness. And a machine that can take you places you’ve never wanted to go.

In Bologna, Italy, someone kills a well-known international criminal in cold blood. The killer leaves no traces, the security cameras capture nothing. But there’s a witness: a cat, who happened to be passing by. The police thus decide to capture the feline and use an experimental machine on him, one that allows the user to access another person’s memories. One problem: the cat is very uncooperative. As well as to the cat, the police also find themselves having to deal with his difficult sixteen-year-old owner. And then there’s a killer who’s hiding a terrible secret… and is willing to do anything to prevent the truth from getting out.

  • A well-structured, action-based story written in plain language.
  • A sweeping thriller, perfect for sci-fi and thriller lovers, that can be read in the time it takes to watch a film.
