The former bleached straw hair has turned a more natural shade of blond. Even the most is different. And there are no track marks on her arms. Once upon a time, a junkie whoe and police informer, known simply as Sparrow, had cared for a young street urchin when she was lost and alone. Now, Malory finds that she is staring her bitter past in the face, as she pursues a case which also has its origin in an unsolved murder committed years ago...
