This time, it seems as if there’s no way out. With each trip around the clock, past deeds catch up with them and old enemies reappear.
But wherever there’s a plot, there’s sure to be treachery, and wherever there’s treachery, there’s sure to be trouble-and trouble is what Mosca, Clent, and Saracen the Goose love best. Escaping disaster by the skin of their teeth, they find refuge in Toll, a strange gateway town where visitors. When Mosca and Clent are separated by this quirky law, they hatch a plot to escape. Mosca Mye and Eponymous Clent are at it again. Each resident, visitor, and passerby is allowed out in public only during one of these phases, with the segregation dependent on their name. The city is well-mannered and orderly by night, chaotic and debaucherous. In this strange, aptly named gateway town, visitors may neither enter nor exit without paying a steep price. Having successfully wreaked revolution upon the City of Mandelion, the pair find themselves escaping catastrophe by the skin of their teeth and seeking refuge in Toll. Frances Hardinge (born 1973) is a British childrens writer. Mosca Mye and Eponymous Clent return in the sequel to Fly By Night, from award-winning author Frances Hardinge
