Streuner willkommen! Eine neue herzerwärmende Cozy Fantasy mit Katzen von der Bestseller-Autorin Heather Fawcett.Agnes Aubert führt ein akribisch organisiertes Leben, und das muss sie auch. Denn als Chefin einer dringend benötigten Katzenzuflucht ist sie oft die Einzige, die zwischen ihren geliebten Katzen und dem sicheren Tod steht. Als sie umziehen muss, erfährt Agnes, dass ihr neuer Vermieter der Dunkle Lord Havelock Renard ist, der das Heim nur als Fassade für seinen völlig illegalen Zauberladen benutzt. Dass Renard mit seiner verbotenen Magie einmal beinahe die Apokalypse herbeigeführt hat, macht ihn nicht sympathischer.Agnes ist das erstmal herzlich egal - ihre Sorge gilt allein den Katzen. Doch als ein Feind aus Renards Vergangenheit auftaucht, muss Agnes Partei ergreifen und ihr Organisationstalent für etwas dunklere Zweck einsetzen: den Schutz des Mannes, der als einer der größten Verbrecher des Jahrhunderts gilt.
