The Cat's Maw

The Cat's Maw
Ten-year-old Billy Brahm is known for being accident-prone, but his latest 'accident' - being hit by a car - was no ordinary mishap. Trapped by a broken leg and haunted by bizarre nightmares of speaking cats and colossal waves, Billy begins to suspect his clumsiness is tied to something far more sinister. Could his dreams be more real than his waking life? And what secrets do the cats at the mysterious old Thomas place hold?

The lingering pain in your broken leg is a constant reminder of the car accident. Trapped on a lumpy cot in the living room, you're bored and frustrated. Your mother's sighs and thinly veiled annoyance make things worse.

She wants you to be productive, to 'find a friend' outside. But friends are far away, and the only place that truly interests you – the old Thomas house and its hundreds of cats – feels off-limits, especially now.

As you drift between restless waking hours and vivid, horrifying nightmares, the line between reality and dream begins to blur. The strange cat that led you into the road appears in your mind, speaking cryptic words. A metallic taste on your tongue after drinking your mother's milk seems to plunge you deeper into the nightmare world. Something is terribly wrong, and it’s not just your broken leg.
