Book Octavo, hardcover, fine in near fine green pictorial dj. It's England, 1783. When the rich and beautiful Sovay isn't sitting for portraits, she's donning a man's cloak and robbing travelers-in broad daylight. But in a time when political allegiances between France and England are strained, a rogue bandit is not the only thing travelers fear. Spies abound, and rumors of sedition can quickly lead to disappearances. So when Sovay lifts the wallet of one of England's most powerful and dangerous men, it's not just her own identity she must hide, but that of her father. A dazzling historical saga in which the roles of thieves and gentry, good and bad, and men and women are interchanged to riveting effect. Celia Rees is the author of many books for young readers including the bestsellers Witch Child, Sorceress, and Pirates! She lives in Leamington Spa, England with her husband and teenage daughter.
