Forests aren't the only places in which children can become lost... Handsome can taste luck on his tongue. His sister, Egret, can levitate. But these powers don't spare them from the difficult life they live in the middle of an urban slum known as the Maze. When the people who should care for them most abandon the siblings to a heartless man, they find themselves on the run through twisting streets that seem to have no end. Until one road does end... at a house that promises both safety... and something far more sinister. A magical realism retelling of Hansel and Gretel.
