Fly Trap
“Hardinge’s world is rich enough to fuel two or three fantasy novels. It’s a beautifully written tale, by turns humorous and heartbreaking and a sheer pleasure to read.”
Publishers Weekly (starred review)
Mosca Mye and Eponymous Clent are at it again. Escaping disaster by the skin of their teeth, they find refuge in Toll, a strange gateway town where visitors may neither enter nor leave without paying a price. By day, the city is well-mannered and orderly; by night, it's host to rogues and villains.
Wherever there's a plot, there's sure to be treachery, and wherever there's treachery, there's sure to be trouble-and where there's trouble, well, Clent, Mosca, and Saracen can't be far behind. But as past deeds catch up with them and old enemies appear, this time it seems as if there's no way out.
