Private investigator Ben Turlough has been hired for a big job by a small woman. That's small as in tiny…like, the size of your hand. In a world where humans have been converted into marsupials, and pouch-riding joeys are accepted citizens, that's not unusual.
But Turlough's assignment is a little more complicated than it appears. He'll journey from the lowest dives to the highest levels of society, encountering mutants, drunks and scheming dames in his search for the missing Clarissa Waterstone. By the time he finds her, his life just might be changed forever.
