Synopsis
Like much of de Lint's work, this urban fantasy is set in the fictional city of Newford (based on the city of Ottawa). A journalist and a cab driver who meet while tracking some of the city's more shadowy residents find themselves with more than they bargained for when this underground society threatens to erupt into conflict that will, inevitably, spill up onto the streets.

Publisher's Note
Searching for a half-animal, half-human race that is believed to haunt the city's most troubled urban areas, photojournalist Lily inadvertently teams up with downtown resident Hank and finds herself enmeshed in a brutal turf war in which nothing is as it appears. By the World Fantasy Award-winning author of The Onion Girl.

Industry reviews
"All this is merely a hint of the delightful complexities to be found here: an enthralling blend of old European and Native American mythology, seamlessly worked into a modern setting and station. De Lint's best so far."
Allen

    My Book Condition System:

  • Excellent = looks almost new
  • Very Good = some wear, minor scuffing, maybe one or two creases on spine.
  • Good = Well read book. Spine creased, edges worn.

    Lily is a photojournalist in search of the "animal people" who supposedly haunt the city's darkest slums. Hank is a slumdweller who knows the bad streets all too well. One night, in a brutal incident, their two lives collide--uptown Lily and downtown Hank, each with a quest and a role to play in the secret drama of the city's oldest inhabitants. For the animal people walk among us. Native Americans call them the First People, but they have never left, and they claim the city for their own. Not only have Hank and Lily stumbled onto a secret, they've stumbled into a war. And in this battle for the city's soul, nothing is quite as it appears.
