When the Radiance suddenly vanishes, eight young men: a nobleman s son and his servant; a Bedouin mystic; a cobbler and his cousin; a City guard; a cross-dresser; and Glane, the boy who wants to fly, are suspected of its theft. Yes, they took it . but only because it needed repair! And, since they broke it, they must repair it. But the situation is not as simple as that - and there are many, many reasons why the perpetrators are wanted! To elude capture, this octet of unlikely conspirators forms a secret clan, the Clan of the Dung-Sniffers, and vows to repair and replace the Radiance before the authorities can catch them. But their plans are derailed by bees and feathers and blackmail . and they are sent headlong into a brewing rebellion that might potentially dissolve their first great achievement - friendship. In a beehive of mistaken interpretations and murderous intrigue, and while under the constant threat of termination, the Clan of the Dung-Sniffers must strive to overcome their prejudices and personal fears while attempting to piece together the fractured Radiance, and the shattered fragments of their lives''.
