Incredibly intense stunning plot of the novel is full of intricacies, manipulations and bizarre mysteries. It has everything: love, adventure, betrayal, pain and emotional violence. Victorian London is unadorned: slums, Thames with its muddy waters, thieves, beggars, pornographers and psychiatric hospitals that look more like prisons. One day, a rogue nicknamed Gentleman offered the girl a deal: get a job as a maid for a rich lady, help him persuade her to marry, seize a woman\'s wealth and then divide it. The plan seems simple, and Sue agrees. But it turns out that you can make a fool of anyone - actually, and of yourself.
