An odd yet enchanting Faustian tale. Shizuka sold her soul to hell many years ago for musical success and is now buying it back by procuring 7 other souls. She is on her last when she meets Katrina a young trans woman who has been horribly abused by family and the world . Katrina loves the violin and Shizuka becomes her teacher. Meanwhile a family of aliens has bought the local donut shop disguising themselves as human and Shizuka finds herself attracted to their Captain. Will Shizuka take Katrina’s soul?
Really a lovely story.
