An Artful Dodge
TK
London, 1878: twenty-year-old Kit Jimeson is a lifelong member of an infamous all-women thieving gang south of the Thames. She and her dodge partner, Mary, have fingers so nimble they can nick a necklace off a neck in broad daylight without raising any alarm. Kit was born into this life—her mother, who died when Kit was twelve, had been a thief before her—but Kit has been saving up her earnings so her younger sister, a maid for a wealthy London family, might have a shot at respectability.
Kit is very close to leaving the life entirely when Maggie O’Connell brings her plans to a halt. A former thief, beautiful, charismatic Maggie has come back to town to reclaim leadership of the ring. But after twenty years in a brutal Australian penal colony, Maggie desires more than mere wealth or power; she longs for revenge against those who put her there. Old dark secrets come to light as Maggie threatens Kit’s sister, coercing Kit to carry off a jewelry heist that will demand every skill she possesses.
