Why are family fortunes built? Could years of honest toil and a keen lookout be enough to keep a clan together? Grandma was well on the way to fulfilling her grandest wish, when an enigmatic cat entered her world and cast a yellow-eyed glare upon her soul.
When a young man plans to build a life, he counts the cost; and if the capital at hand will cover the outlay, then there will be a caution against greedy and entitled relations among those who want to lend a hand with the works. When a yellow-eyed ghost slips quietly onto the scene, and young love is besieged by the original greed, the outcome might still be for the good, as good and evil may be chosen. The bird of young happiness might still be on the wing; but the yellow-eyed cat will always be there as it comes wing-wearily to the homing point.
Readers have commented on the "spell-bindingly strange atmosphere", created by the story: "There is mystery and suspense ... and a shifting sense of ... fuzzy evil ... soul-touching longing, and thought-provoking subtlety ... a memorable read."
