    In the shadowy crossroads of deep-space outposts, where wanderers trade stories as often as credits, one woman stands apart: Steena—quiet, sharp-eyed, and possessed of a mind that never forgets. A thin, gray figure with a photographic memory and an uncanny instinct for danger, Steena has saved more lives than she’s ever claimed credit for. And when Bub Nelson brings her Bat, a massive gray tom-cat with a growl like a reactor core, the two form a bond as mysterious as the galaxy itself. 
    From the rites of Jupiter’s moons to the treasure-sparked Slitite rush, from smoky spacer bars to derelict ships drifting in cold void, Steena’s knowledge cuts deeper than rumor and sharper than luck. But it’s her unraveling of the legendary Empress of Mars mystery that cements her as one of the most enigmatic—and indispensable—figures on the star lanes. 
    Andre Norton blends noir atmosphere, cosmic intrigue, and strange companionship in this classic science-fiction tale of intuition, survival, and the quiet intelligence that sees what others overlook. Narrated by Drew Caton with grit, subtlety, and atmospheric tension, All Cats Are Grey is a voyage into the margins of the galaxy… where secrets live, legends breathe, and a gray woman and her gray cat walk unafraid.
