A story like no other; strange and beautifully wrought with heart-wrenching twists and innocence. A orphanage filled with boys and religion, until a con man comes for the one-handed boy and weaves a story of their family that
slowly unravels almost all the way. The boy's true identity is more and more elusive and obscured until the surprising ending. The journey there is filled with the most amazing characters from the dwarf in the chimney to the extremely loud, large and loving inn-keeper, the doctor undertaker and the giant - all experienced through the eyes and heart of a thoroughly naive good thief.
