Set in a den of thieves in 1860's London, this novel focuses on Susan, a pickpocket, who is persuaded by her cohorts to pose as a lady's maid and infiltrate the household of Maud, a young heiress in possession of a large inheritance.
WOW WOW WOW...what more can I say! I LOVED this book, could not put it down. I think Sarah Waters is fast becoming one of my favorite authors! Beautifully written, atmospheric, fabulous characters and setting, definitely one you won't want to miss!
