In the shadows of the city, the street kids whisper of forbidden places. Places best left alone. It wasn't meant to be this way, but there is no turning back now. Milady will be the first adapt in over eight decades to traverse the worlds, armed only with books containing scant instructions, an old priestess's knowledge and Lucy, the runaway bougie she bought from Rat for 100 bucks. Time is not on her side, and her sanity is on the line. Why couldn't this have been a normal week? Why does Lucy have to be such a nuisance? And what the f*** is it that the ShadowMan want, really? The journey will take her to places she's done her best to forget, wishing she could have just left Lucy alone that day in the park. Head or tail, what will it be? Will the past stay hidden, or are the knocks too loud to ignore?
