Someplace to Be Flying by Charles de Lint
4.0
Hank is just killing time between pick ups one night when he comes upon a woman being beaten in an alley. Lily has no idea why this man is attacking her and when he shoots the man who pulls over to help her she thinks they are done for until two mysterious young birdlike girls show up, killing their attacker and healing their injuries. Hank and Lily bond over the experience but they also start to notice things they've overlooked before, specifically the animal people they seem to be surrounded by...
Kerry has a twin sister Katy who was never born but after a surgery to remove foreign tissue from her side that turns out to be a fossilized fetus she can all of a sudden see and speak too Katy but no one else can see her. The story between these 2 is far complicated to summarize but it's also very intriguing.
I love dipping my toes back into the world of Newford and this was no exception, the world building is complex, atmospheric and subtle and the characters are always interesting.
