4.0 out of 5 stars A dark tale of Newford, 24 Feb 2004
Children are dying in the Combat Zone and the Tombs, and Jim McGann thinks he may have found a clue to the killer...

A dark tale set in Charles De Lint's fictional city of Newford (home of Jilly Coppercorn and friends whose stories you can read in "Dreams Underfoot", "The Ivory and the Horn", "Moonlight and Vines" and "Tapping the Dream Tree"), this story features a very different array of characters from the ones that De Lint fans know and love. However, De Lint explores his usual themes - kids on the street, child abuse, being Native American in a prejudiced world, spirits and wonder in a glittering callous city - with his usual humane touch.

Originally written under his pseudonym of Samuel M. Key, the writing is tight, and the characterisations are strong. The story is quite gripping. My only real criticism is that there are an awful lot of main characters in this novel, and I don't feel you ever get to know any of them well.
