A rollicking read of Dickensian proportions! Waters crafts a masterful plot that takes us from the grimy underbelly of Victorian London to a dreary country estate and back again – with many a plot twist along the way! Waters delights in pulling the rug out from underneath you, but her wickedly satisfying payoffs are always there to catch you when you fall. Colourful characters, lesbian longing, and devious deceptions abound! Compulsively readable.
