, 1 edition
On an eerie waste plot, Josh finds a cat's skull that belongs to Nancy, a strange Polish woman who feeds wild cats. From that moment the skull seems to have power over Josh's life and possibly his death, yet he cannot relinquish it.
"I tell you, boy, you take. But then...it take you. More...and more...you want it until you are dead but cannot die. How you like that, boy? Dead...but still alive." Nancy's words are ominous.
Kevin, a sinister new classmate persecutes Josh, steals the skull, and incites Josh's friends to beat him up on a lonely path beside a rail track.
Unless Josh can find a solution to the problem of the skull and Kevin, worse may happen. This is a story of a boy, on the brink of maturity, who discovers himself.
