Book Description: Constable Jackson Forge intends to make the world safer, or at least the streets of Victorian London. But that’s Kit Turner’s domain, a swindler who runs a crew that acquires money the old-fashioned way—conning the rich to give to the poor. When a local cab driver goes missing, Jackson is tasked with finding the man, and the only way to do that is by enlisting Kit’s help. If Jackson doesn’t find the cabby, he’ll be fired. If Kit doesn’t help Jackson, he’ll arrest her for thievery. Yet neither of them realize those are the least of their problems.
My Thoughts: Michelle Griep is one of my favorite authors. I love the way she pens a story especially a story of intrigue.
It's interesting that a thief, Kit Turner, is called up on to help in a police investigation when a local cab driver goes missing. And it's a must for Constable Jackson to find the missing cab driver. His job literally depends on it.
But as life would have it only a thief seems to know where people go missing. And Kit not only feels obligated to help the constable because he would get her on thievery charges but there's just something in her that wants to find a missing person. I think there's a bit of honesty in us all.
One can't help but like the con artist Kit Turner. Not only is she crafty but she is beautiful. She takes what life hands her, literally!
But as Kit and the constable set out to find the missing cab driver they end up with more on their plate they they ever thought they would find.
Mystery, suspense and a bit of humor make this a grand read!
