About this ebook
Watch Out!!! This book is so funny you’ll probably pee your pants laughing.
Tuck and Ginger are two cats who get on each other’s nerves. But they need to pause the claws if they’re to escape from the high-rise apartment where they are trapped. And escape they must, for their kidnappers – Rodney and Janice Burringo – are warty wicked witches who want to use Tuck and Ginger’s body parts to build the best witches’ cat in the world: a black Purrari.
Tuck, who’s a few granules short of a litter-tray, and Ginger, a cynical street fighter gone to seed, must overcome their differences and survive a list of unlikely adventures if they’re to escape alive from the beastly Burringos and their toxic gases before it’s too late.

A fun and very silly (but in a great way) story about two very different kitties who get into some terribly exciting scraps before getting back. We had enormous fun reading this at night and it was finished far too quickly. We are looking forward to their next adventure.
About the author
Ged Gillmore completed degrees in languages and literature at the University of London. After graduating, Ged worked in France, Germany and Italy before returning to London for eighteen years. Fancying a change to sunnier climes, Ged made the leap to Sydney in early 2004. These days he spends his time between Australia, Ireland and the UK. When he's not falling off his surfboard at Bondi or dabbling with a day job which pays the bills he sits at his laptop and bashes out fiction. He writes tense and taut contemporary mysteries, alongside laugh-out-loud chapter books for kids. Most recently he has turned his hand to travel writing too. In October 2017, Ged launched HEADLAND, the first book in the 'Bill Murdoch Mystery' series. The sequel, CLASS ACT, launched in January 2018, and the third book in the series, BASE NATURE, was released in March 2018. In July 2018, CLASS ACT was nominated for the Ned Kelly Awards 2018 (Australia's most prestigious crime novel prize). In May 2019, Ged published 'Stans By Me', a memoir of his whirlwind travels through Central Asia (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan), all told with a generous dollop of his deadpan British wit.
