The Cats of Carcosa
1925, Shanghai. A truly international, cultural melting pot that has managed to keep its wealth and prestige despite the chaos of civil war ravaging the country.
But now riots, rock the center of a wealthy district and some very influential people are very angry. They want answers about who is behind the rioting, what actually happened and what is the connection to cats?
The investigators are an unusual bunch hired by a French-Vietnamese businessman because he hopes they have the right mix of skills to solve the problems that seem to be increasing.
The center of the riot seems to have been a cinema. People are becoming obsessed with a Sherlock Holmes story.
There are rumors of military involvement, Japanese gangsters looking for a cut, and to top it all off, that cat is looking at you in a very strange way.
