EDGAR ALLEN AWARD NOMINEE • A hidden world of magic and mystery awaits in a dark and gritty metropolis known as Dust City in this thrilling young adult adaptation of the classic fairytale Little Red Riding Hood.

“The premise is fractured fairy tale, but the play is pure noir: Chinatown via the Brothers Grimm.”—Booklist

When your dad is the wolf who killed Little Red Riding Hood, life is no fairytale.

Everyone assumes crime is in Henry Whelp’s blood. His dad—the so-called Big Bad Wolf—is doing time for the double murder of Little Red Riding Hood and her grandmother. For years, Henry’s kept a low profile at a Home for Wayward Wolves, just on the outskirts of Dust City—a gritty metropolis known for a black-market, mind-altering dust that’s got its entire population of foxes, ravens, and hominids hooked. But it’s not just any dust the creatures of the underground are slinging. It’s fairydust.

When a murder at the Home forces Henry to escape, he begins to suspect his dad may have been framed. With a daring she-wolf named Fiona by his side, Henry travels to the dark alleyways and cavernous tunnels of Dust City. There, he’ll come face to snout with legendary mobster Skinner and his Water Nixie henchmen to discover what really happened to his father in the woods that infamous night . . . and the shocking truth about fairydust.
