Born into a world of con artists and thieves, she's made herself respectable, running the grandest home in Mayfair. The place is packed with treasures, a glittering symbol of wealth and power, but dark secrets lurk in the shadows. When Mrs. King is suddenly dismissed from her position, she recruits an eclectic group of women to join her in revenge: A black market queen out to settle her scores.

But there's one thing Mrs. King wants even more than money: the truth. And she'll run any risk to get it..."-- Provided by publisher. 20230821. Robbery Fiction. Swindlers and swindling Fiction.
