A fast-paced historical mystery with breath-taking twists and turns
that takes us from the bohemian world of late 19th-Century Paris to
a deadly secret at the heart of the British Empire. March 1881,
London's East End. Kitty Peck, a spirited but vulnerable
seventeen-year-old, is the reluctant heiress to Paradise, the
criminal empire previously overseen by the formidable Lady Ginger.
Far from the colour and camaraderie of the music hall where Kitty
had been working, this newfound power brings with it isolation and
uncertainty. Desperate to reconnect with Joey, her estranged
brother, Kitty travels to Paris. Reunited at last, she is unable to
refuse his request to take a child back to London. Within days of
her return it's clear that someone has followed them... and this
someone is determined to kill the child... and anyone who stands in
their way.
