Cat's Eye Omnibus Volume 2

Seeking the truth behind the disappearance of their world-famous artist father, protagonist Hitomi and her two sisters have become phantom art thieves, and they'll do anything to get a scoop, including using Hitomi's own boyfriend-and clueless police officer-Toshio. Will she be able to keep her secret life hidden, or will she lose her foothold in steadily escalating game of cat-and-mouse? A romance sitcom classic by living legend Hojo Tsukasa, Cat's Eye is finally receiving its first English manga release! Cat's Eye is the Robin (sister)Hood of bubbly 80s Tokyo. Café owners by day, art thieves by night, the three sisters Rui, Ai, and Hitomi have high-risk lives outside of their day jobs. Hitomi especially needs to keep her secret under wraps, since she's dating Toshio-the police officer assigned to catch the Cat's Eye thief! Cat's Eye's targets are easy to spot: they're all art pieces authored by acclaimed genius painter Heinz. What museums don't know is that this artist is the missing father to the three "Cat's Eye" siblings. As the sisters reclaim one piece after another, spreading their incredibly infamous name, a conspiracy gradually begins to reveal itself. How can their father come out of hiding when the bloodthirsty syndicate that betrayed him to steal his work and fame-many of whom were once his closest apprentices and art collectors-are still so powerful in the art world? When Cat's Eye tightropes another canvas out of a heavily guarded exhibit, the cops are pressed to apprehend the thief. Can the sisters discover the truth about their missing father? Or will they be apprehended by Hitomi's star-crossed lover Toshio or killed by the looming syndicate responsible for the father's disappearance. As the heists continue, the stakes only get higher!
