Once there was a girl with a murderous father and nowhere left to run. She found Anna — a pickpocket, a mystery, a person of uncertain edges — and in finding her, discovered something about herself she hadn’t known to look for.

She became Viktor. And in becoming Viktor, she found a kind of freedom that her own name had never allowed. Strange, isn’t it, how sometimes the costume fits better than the clothing you were born into.

But stories don’t stay safe. The supernatural finds her, as it always does. Norman has written a fairy tale with teeth — a story about friendship, survival, and the things that hide in the margins of the world, waiting for someone brave enough to look.
