About this ebook
The Crossroads Hotel. A place between worlds. A place of magic and mystery.
Brice McCleary, fighting a hellish rainstorm from the driver's seat of an old car. Trapped somewhere between Bakersfield and Flagstaff. Hungry. Tired. Stressed near the brink. His only passenger, a beloved cat named Pepperhead.
A passing semi nearly drowns them. Brice must chance an unlit, unmapped exit.
Pain, wonder, and transformation await him at the Crossroads Hotel.
"The Language of Cats" -- a contemporary fantasy short story full of subtle magic, and heart. From Stefon Mears, author of the Spells for Hire series.
