White Cat by Simon Cole

In The White Cat, Simon Cole weaves a haunting mystery spanning continents and generations. When Barbara uncovers letters linking her family to colonial South Africa, a tragic love affair, and a porcelain white cat, she’s drawn into a web of secrets long buried by time. From war-torn Vienna to the Cape’s restless shores, past and present entwine in this lyrical exploration of love, loss, and the fragile threads that connect us. Part historical fiction, part philosophical reflection, The White Cat is an elegant, deeply human meditation on memory and meaning.
