Fingersmith
Sarah Waters
‘We were all more or less thieves at Lant Street. But we were that kind of thief that rather eased the dodgy deed along, than did it
We could pass anything, anything at all, at speeds which would astonish you. There was only one thing, in fact, that had come and got stuck one thing that had somehow withstood the tremendous pull of that passage one thing that never had a price put to it. I mean of course, Me.’ London 1862. Sue Trinder, orphaned at birth, grows up among petty thieves fingersmiths under the rough but loving care of Mrs Sucksby and her ‘family’. But from the moment she draws breath, Sue’s fate is linked to that of another orphan growing up in a gloomy mansion not too many miles away
