With his dad doing time for the double murder of Little Red Riding Hood and her grandmother, Henry Whelp tries to keep a low profile in Dust City—a gritty metropolis known for its black-market, mind-altering fairydust. But when he begins to suspect that his father may have been framed, Henry ventures deep into the City's underworld. There he comes face to snout with the legendary mobster Skinner and discovers what really happened to his father... as well as the horrifying truth about fairydust.

"Dust City has all the trappings of noir storytelling—except that its characters are wolves, foxes and ravens... It's as if James Ellroy were one of the Brothers Grimm."
—The Georgia Straight

"One of those novels that can be enjoyed on several levels, and which says as much about the dark underbelly of our world today as it does about those old stories."
—CBC Radio

"Dust City will appeal to Gaiman, Gorey, Hurley, or Burton fans."
