Striking off on her own, she finds her true family in a group of larger-than-life trans femmes who make their home in a mysterious pleasure district known only as the Street of Miracles. Under the wings of this fierce and fabulous flock, she blossoms into the woman she has always dreamed of being, with a little help from the unscrupulous Doctor Crocodile. When one of their number is brutally murdered, our protagonist joins her sisters in forming a vigilante gang to fight back against the transphobes, violent johns, and cops that stalk the Street of Miracles. But when things go terribly wrong, she must find the truth within herself in order to stop the violence and discover what it really means to grow up and find your family."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Transgender people $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Vigilantes $v Fiction. 650 0 $a City and town life $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Feminist fiction. 941 $a 1 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220105010353.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3288A7C46DF511ECB33FF4E951ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
