Synopsis
Set in Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere world of London Below, this short story follows the Marquis de Carabas after his prized, powerful coat is stolen. His search for it draws him through the Floating Market and into danger, pitting him against an old enemy and forcing him to rely on his estranged, similarly gifted older brother, Peregrine, before he can reclaim the coat.
