Nothing is quite as it seems in Victorian high society, in the vibrant and twisty new novel from the author of THE HOUSEKEEPERS...


'Sheer delight from start to finish' Janice Hallett
'Hay keeps the pages turning and the reader guessing' The Times
'As fiendishly clever as its characters' Jennie Godfrey

SHE PLAYS BY HER OWN RULES.

Few can know the mysterious woman called the Queen of Fives. A talented hustler in silk and furs, she tricks fortunes from unscrupulous men with five signature moves. Masquerading as a wealthy debutante, Quinn Le Blanc has five days to win the hand of the most eligible duke in England - and disappear with the family riches.

BUT HAS SHE MET HER MATCH?

As Quinn targets the corrupt, charismatic Kendals, a stranger watches her from the shadows. Soon a dangerous game begins to play out within the grand drawing rooms and lavish balls of London's high society. The Kendal family all have secrets of their own, and Quinn may not have the upper hand for long...
