Black Cat

Chloe Fortune has been anti-roads, anti-nuclear, anti-capitalist, anti-everything for so long. Now she wants to be pro-something. Pro-active at the very least. Perhaps hooking up with strange Ethan in his search for the mysterious black beast rumoured to be at large will give Chloe the goal, the centre, that she needs. Or maybe her motivation is Ethan himself, geographically and mentally on the margins of society in his caravan on the moors, but self-contained and certain in his quest. For Chloe, with her black outfits and her wild dreadlocks, doesn't fit in so well herself. And when Ethan discovers that she is a dowser, with an acute sixth sense allowing her to locate anything she sets her mind on, their partnership seems like a natural fit. Seeker and finder. But as they hunt their quarry, they close in on other dangerous truths: about themselves, about each other and about obsession itself.
