After having a fall from grace five years ago, a guy known as the Warden leads a life of criminal offense, dependent on cheap violence and expensive drugs. Every day is a continuous hustle to find new customers and protect his turf from low-life competition like Tancred the Harelip and Ling Chi, the enigmatic criminal offense lord of the heathens. The Warden's life of drugged iniquity is shaken by his discovery of an murdered child down a dead-end block... arrangedting him on a collision course with the life span he left behind. As a previous agent with Dark House-the key police-he knows better than anyone that murder in Low Town can be an everyday thing, the kind of crime it doesn't get investigated. To safeguard his home, he'll be a part of a dangerous game of deception between underworld bosses and the psychotic brain of Dark House, but the truth is very good darker than he imagines.

Daniel Polansky has crafted a thrilling novel steeped in noir sensibilities and relentless action, and set in an original world of stunning creativity, leading to a gut-wrenching, unforeseeable final result.
