A Ketterdam, vivace centro di scambi commerciali internazionali, non c'è niente che non possa essere comprato e nessuno lo sa meglio di Kaz Brekker, cresciuto nei vicoli bui e dannati del Barile, la zona più malfamata della città, un ricettacolo di sporcizia, vizi e violenza. Kaz, detto anche Manisporche, è un ladro spietato, bugiardo e senza un grammo di coscienza che si muove con disinvoltura tra bische clandestine, traffici illeciti e bordelli, con indosso gli immancabili guanti di pelle nera e un bastone decorato con una testa di corvo.
