Twisty and compelling new historical fiction from the author of THE HOUSEKEEPERS in which London's most talented con woman has five days to lift a fortune from the richest family in England.

Nothing is quite as it seems in Victorian high society, in the twisty and original new novel from the author of THE HOUSEKEEPERS... 'Sheer delight from start to finish' Janice Hallett 'Audacious, cunning, quick-witted' Louise Candlish 'As fiendishly clever as its characters' Jennie Godfrey They whisper her name in every corner of town. The lady with a hundred faces, a thousand lives. Five moves, five days - for such are the rules of her game. 1898. Quinn Le Blanc, London's most talented con woman, has five days to pull off the seemingly impossible: trick an eligible duke into marriage and lift a fortune from the richest family in England. Masquerading as a wealthy debutante, Quinn is the jewel of the season. Her brilliant act opens doors to the grand drawing rooms and lavish balls of high society - and propels her into the inner circle of her target: the corrupt, charismatic Kendals. But as she spins in and out of their world, Quinn becomes tangled in a dangerous web of love, lies and loyalty. The Kendal family all have secrets of their own, and she may not be the only one playing a game of high deception... --- 'A period piece, a full-throttle thriller and a masterclass in characterisation - historical fiction doesn't get more exciting than this' Erin Kelly 'A fabulous mix of Victorian skullduggery and high society, full of twists that keep you turning the pages, this is a fantastic read where no-one is ever quite what they seem' Katy Watson 'High stakes, high society and high drama, with a gleaming cast of characters and a game that keeps you guessing till the last' Kate Foster, author of The Maiden 'Rich in delicious detail and enticing prose, while terrifically fast-paced, Alex Hay's The Queen of Fives has stolen my heart' Jessica Bull, author of Miss Austen Investigates Praise for THE HOUSEKEEPERS: 'The perfect holiday read' Guardian 'Punch-the-air good' Kiran Millwood Hargrave 'Delightfully mischievous' The Times 'Imagine Ocean's 8 had an illegitimate baby with Fingersmith' Erin Kelly 'Impressive' Sunday Times 'Kept me hooked 'til the last page' Jennifer Saint

Unless I am allowed to tell the story of my life in my own way, I cannot tell it at all.Mary Seacole - traveller, nurse, businesswoman and radical for her time - defied a prejudiced British government to care for soldiers wounded during the Crimean War.This ground breaking account, written by Seacole in 1857, brings to life her incredible journey from Jamaica to Central America and England, and then on to modern-day Ukraine, where she acted as nurse to injured soldiers while running her business, the 'British Hotel'. A witness to key battles, she gives vivid accounts of how she coped with disease, bombardment and other adversities during the Crimean War.In this extraordinary autobiography, Seacole shows how she navigated her way through racial injustice, poverty and ignorance to become the first woman of colour in Britain to publish her memoirs. It is a testament to her enduring legacy.

HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics.
