Publisher's Synopsis
In the future, progress demands that we dispose with old, outdated culture and look to the future. Out with the old and in with the new. However, deep beneath the city, the renegade Snitches horde treasures in the Witch Market, preserving every scrap of culture that they can and struggling to survive.
But now, news comes that the Witch Market will be overrun any day, the Snitches killed and their material passions destroyed. A small band of Snitches must find a way to overcome squabbling factions, avoid the hostile Xs, and move the Witch Market to a promised land that may not even exist.
And time is running out...
