Anthropomorphic Crime Drama / Animal Noir / Organized Crime

By S. Ramirez

About the Book

In the city of Clawton, survival starts young and mercy does not come cheap.

Archie is an orange cat with no family, no protection, and no soft place to land. Raised in an orphanage before the streets claim him, he learns early that weakness gets noticed and loyalty can cost more than blood. As he grows from a runaway kitten into a young cat shaped by gangs, betrayal, and prison walls, Archie is forced to decide what kind of animal he is becoming.

Coming Up Hard is the first book in the Restless Tails series, a gritty anthropomorphic crime drama about survival, loyalty, consequence, and the long shadow of every choice.


One-Sentence Hook

An orphaned street cat rises through gangs and prison in a city where loyalty is dangerous, survival is brutal, and every choice leaves teeth marks.
