But, while he's been protecting Milo from falling under the government's ever-vigilant radar, his brother has been working on a surprise present for him, one that's the cat's meow... Dani is that gift-a woman from the past that Levi has been fixated on. Milo never anticipated having his brother's dream girl come to their time with a snarky cat that can not only talk but doesn't have a clue how or when to shut up!

If not for the fact that the two of them are pawns in a game with no rule book, this might be a good thing for both of them. Levi can't believe how lucky he is. But someone is after Dani, and, until he finds out who that is, there can be no honeymoon bliss. Dani is targeted with not a clue what the stalker wants. The bodies begin piling up behind them.

When they uncover insinuations of a dangerous conspiracy that can be traced directly back to the foundations of society and permeates every part of life, as the world knows it, they realize that to expose this evil is to shake the Earth to its core. One by one, people begin disappearing. If not for Levi's twisted, genius brother Milo and Dani's talking cat Charmin Marvin, the two of them would also be missing-or dead. But someone is still playing games, stalking Dani and everyone connected to her, and the cat's cradle web they're weaving is becoming impossible to escape. Unless they can find a way to expose this massive cover-up and who's behind it all, they'll become the next vanished.
