Believing Bones is a story that remains rooted in the soul long after it has ended. Bones, a white cat, travels a city alone, seeing, both in nature and in the man-made world, many allegories for humankind. Along his journey, he meets nine people whose lives, because of either the choices they made, or simply the choices that have befallen them, have brought them to Bones. He gives them the honesty that comes from an understanding that is far different than our own.
