Summary, etc.:

"Expelled into the hot, empty streets, fifteen-year-old Kit takes to feeding the stray cats that haunt the forgotten and unseen spaces of his town. There he also meets Jess, a manga-loving punk stuck with a pack of heavy-metal headbangers. But the pack can only hold so long once she creates Katman, a ferocious shape-shifting stand-in for Kit's quiet version of heroism. Not that he thinks of himself as a hero. After all, heroes don't typically lie, steal, and hang out with crazy people"--Cover, P. [4].
