Although Arabella Knightley is a duke's grand-daughter, due to family circumstances she spent her childhood in the east end of London. Now barely tolerated by the ton, she a reluctant part of the ton, Arabella in the disguise of Tom a thiet rights what she considers wrongs.
An enjoyable story which moved along at a good pace, with some good rounded characters. (

Arabella had a scandalous childhood and suffers under a cruel nickname given her years ago by Adam St Just. She is biding her time until her 25th birthday, when she will inherit her fortune and can devote her life to setting up schools for unfortunate girls. In the meantime, she operates as Tom and burgles those members of the ton who have hurt others in a sort of Robin Hood crusade. One of the people hurt by Lady Bicknell is Grace, Adam's sister.

This novel was light, fun and utterly preposterous. I enjoyed it very much. (

This book is for Margareta and Maurice, for their very generous hospitality.

I can't thank you enough!

The thief stood in front of Lady Bicknell's dressing table and looked with disapproval at the objects strewn across it: glass vials of perfume, discarded handkerchiefs, a clutter of pots and jars of cosmetics—rouge, maquillage—many gaping open, their contents drying, two silver-backed hairbrushes with strands of hair caught among the bristles, a messy pile of earrings, the faceted jewels glinting dully in the candlelight.
