Van 007 is out of touch and running out of time now that he’s losing his life-sustaining whiskers. Set in a world where animals break into song and several animal species have extraordinary powers that humans either choose to ignore or are persuaded into forgetting, Van, a cat-vampire, can’t even remember why the chicken crossed the road, let alone his own purpose. His world is torn apart by others and as he attempts to avoid death, he juggles inner, outer and surreal demons, whilst the overwhelming responsibility to the runt porker, Pavel, makes him far too human. But which one of them is out of their head when the other isn’t around?

Will Van realise his dream of becoming an Immortal?

Will he make it?
