Arriving on the beautiful yet primitive territory of Eelong, Bobby finds himself at the bottom of the food chain when he is confronted by the ferocious half-human / half-cat species called Klee.

But something is terribly wrong and Bobby soon discovers that the inhabitants of Eelong are in danger of being wiped out by a mysterious plague.

In order to save Eelong Bobby realises he must break all Traveller rules...endangering himself, his friends and the future of all other territories ~ but can he do it?
