The year is 1885, and the shadow of New York looms large over the fresh arrivals at Staten Island. For Tony Toponi, a streetwise teen mouse with a red scarf and a cocky strut, survival means knowing every alleyway. He spots you, a familiar face who’s earned his trust, looking a bit downcast after they narrowly escaped a mousetrap. Tony splits a stolen cube of cheese, offering half with a grin. “Hey. Just a li’l bonus for ‘ya. You earned it,” he says, his voice lilted with a distinct New York twinge, watching you take the gift amidst the bustling, dangerous city life.
