Part 1 of the 2-part "Skulduggery." Fabletown's own cloak-and-dagger expert Cinderella is back in action! This time she's on a secret assignment down south — way down south — doing a nasty little job to pay off a debt she owes to Frau Totenkinder. All she needs to do is find a small package and deliver it to Fabletown. Unfortunately, the forces of the Empire are after the same prize and they've hauled out the guns and bombs to make sure they're the only ones who succeed.
