The Thief of Blackfriars Lane
An Unlikely Duo of a Con Artist and a Constable Take on Crime in Victorian England
Radical. Bold. Fearless.
Sometimes there’s a fine line between a criminal and a saint…
but on which side of the line is the Thief of Blackfriar’s Lane?
Constable Jackson Forge is determined to make the world a better place. But the streets of Victorian London are Kit Turner’s domain, a self-proclaimed Robin Hood who runs a crew that acquires money the old-fashioned way—conning those with wealth to give to those who don’t.
When a local cab driver goes missing, it’s Jackson’s task to find the man…and the only way is by enlisting Kit Turner’s help. With Jackson’s job precariously close to termination, he convinces a reluctant Kit to help, reminding her that refusal means turning her in for thievery.
Neither of them realize the worst of their problems still await…
