We follow Sue and Maud, one grew up with a group of thieves in the heart of London and the other was raised by a book obsessed man. There is plotting and scheming, there's questionable morals, a lot of tension, and slow burning passion.
If you like complex stories where there isn't clear good and bad characters, full of original ideas and an impecable storytelling style, this is for you!

If you have trauma of forced institutionalisation or sexual abuse by a family member, then I would not recommend this book. It does have a happy ending and the main characters reclaim their trauma.zeus_strider's review against another edition
