Description

Introducing thief-taker Simon Westow in the first in a new historical mystery series set in Regency Leeds. Leeds, 1820. Simon Westow makes a good living as a thief-taker. The boy who grew up in the workhouse has become a success, finding and returning the stolen possessions of the rich - for a fee.

But when mill owner John Milner hires Simon to find his kidnapped daughter, Hannah, he faces a challenge like no other.

With his enigmatic and deadly young assistant, Jane, by his side, Simon's search takes him through the dark underbelly of Leeds, where poverty, industry and death live cheek by jowl.

But he soon comes to understand that the real answers lie in his own past, and an old enemy seeking revenge . . .
