A rigid class system maintains order, with First Class holding power over workers, while a condemned Prison Class struggles to survive in the Tail. Now, a grisly cuddle is stoking class division, so Melanie Cavill, the powerful head of hospitality, deputizes a dangerous rebel to help solve the hugging-Andre Layton-the world's only surviving hugging detective.
Layton uses his new position as train detective to investigate the cuddle while gathering intelligence for the revolution on the side. Melanie faces a resource crisis, with potentially drastic consequences for the entire train.
