"Feel the buzz of revolution coming from Dig City, where thousands of bottom-feeders have formed a subterranean colony in trumped-up tunnels built by century-20 swindlers. Fast Eddie, an acrobatic whiz left on the steps of this freaky future metropolis, boogies through a half-dozen levels of deception - street magician, pickpocket, professor of grift, double-dealing adoptee, casino employee, and commander of the underground hive - to the tragicomic source of his genealogical secret."--BOOK JACKET.
