Thief-taker Simon Westow must save one of his closest friends from
a grim fate at the hands of the government in this compelling
historical mystery. Leeds, May 1822. Thief-taker Simon Westow owes
Davey and Emily Ashton everything - the siblings gave him sanctuary
when he needed it most. So when Davey is arrested for sedition and
Emily begs Simon for help, he starts asking questions, determined
to clear his friend. Are the answers linked to rumours of a
mysterious government spy in town? Davey's not the only one who
needs Simon's help. Timber merchant George Ericsson has been
'hocussed' by a young woman who spiked his drink and stole his
valuable ring and watch. Who is she, and how does she know one of
Simon's assistant Jane's deepest secrets? The path to the truth is
twisted and dangerous. Simon and Jane encounter murder, lies,
betrayal and a government terrified of its own people as they
attempt to save Davey and find the hocus girl.
