Description
A historical novel set in 1920s London, inspired by the notorious all-female crime syndicate known as the Forty Thieves. Ruby Mills is ruthlessly ambitious and strikingly beautiful, one of the syndicate's most talented members. Harriet Littlemore, a journalist writing for a local newspaper, becomes fascinated with Ruby after witnessing her flee the scene of a robbery. As their personal aspirations bring them into closer contact, Ruby and Harriet's stories become increasingly intertwined. Their magnetic dynamic, fraught with envy and desire, tells a compelling story about class, morality, and being an independent woman in 1920s London. This novel explores the complexities of women's lives during this period, where societal expectations often clashed with personal ambitions.
