For ages, the homeland of the fae was a place of myth and legend. Until the many empires of man arrived and warred to gain control of its riches. Seven years ago, the great war ended when The Republic of The Burgue withdrew... Abandoning the fae to the iron fist of their rivals, The Pact. Now the Fae’s homeland is the hell from which they fear to escape.
A large group of fae rush through the Pact occupied woods of Anoun, though many are shot down as the Pact are on their tails with Marroks at their command. The group of Fae are lead by Vignette Stonemoss, the last of the sparrowhawks. Many lie dead in the woods, Vignette alone makes it off the coast and flew to a nearby ship for passage. Initially reluctant, the Captain allows Vignette to board, but he places her in the hold.
That night, Vignette sits in the hold with the other fae refugees. Ryma thanks Vignette for arranging passage for them even though it meant paying for passing or working as an indentured servant in the Burgue. In her hand, Vignette holds a photo of Rycroft Philostrate. A Burguish soldier she was involved with during the war. However, he died in the last Pact advance, at least that what she was lead to believe. In stormy conditions, the ship's hull begins to leak. Quickly, water rushes into the hold, drowning all those locked inside.
Inspector Rycroft Philostrate arrives on train in the Burgue. He walks Carnival Row, passing by its many residents, humans, faeries, fauns, centaurs and those alike. He confronts two constables who are antagonizing an innocent faun named Callie.
Philo is working a case on the Row. A string of attacks on Critch. They’ve named him Unseelie Jack. His latest victim is a woman named Magrite. She’s from Anoun. Philo spent some time in the Tinanese highlands during the war. He was stationed in a mimasery. One of the most beautiful places he’d ever seen, with some of the bravest people he’d ever known. Unseelie Jack is hunting fae folk. Once every three weeks. It had been three weeks since Magrite was attacked, meaning he is due for another. She heard him before she saw him. He called her a Pix whore. He could smell the darkness on her, he claimed. He didn't have any hair, save for muttonchops. He also had a snake tattoo on his forearm. Lastly, he wore a uniform, however, Magrite couldn’t identify it.
While playing near the lighthouse, two human children and their puck nanny discover a shipwreck on the rocks below. Dozens of fae lie dead in the water. Vignette is amongst them, though she’s alive.
