Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Earth
Having achieved attention by a soft croon of greet ing, he immediately regretted it.
For Diana turned with a lithe movement at the sound, swooped down upon him, and the next moment they were ?ying upstairs together, his paws clutching desperately at her rough serge coat, his frightened yellow eyes condemning the perform ance from over the girl's shoulder.
But when she reached the landing his mistress paused, a faint line of anxiety on her smooth fore head. She put the cat down on its feet with an absent glance, and Buchanan, quivering with wounded pride, administered the subtle re uke of an immediate descent to the round ?oor, every hair on his black and white ody bristling with dignity. Heedless of this, Diana moved on up the passage, where a distant window failed to dispel the gloom of the faded Landseer prints on the time discoloured walls.
