Snow Kidama speaks to ghosts amongst the local gangs of Charybdis Precinct, isolated from the rest of New Arcadia by the city's ancient walls. But when his old lover, Gem--a man he thought dead--shows up in need of his services, Snow is forced to reevaluate everything. Snow and Gem must navigate not only their feelings for each other, but a political plot bigger than both of them and a drug-ridden city on the edge of collapse.
