Hester Featherstone thought she had life on the Ol' Smoke's filthy, dangerous streets all figured out. As a freelance toothpicker, she salvages children's teeth for the viceroy, while keeping her identity as a mutant of the insect-wing class a secret. Hester's luck takes a turn for the worse the day she kills fellow toothpicker Phelan MacHoof in self-defense.
