Description

The library is under lock and key. But its secrets can't be contained. 1896. After he brought her home from Jamaica as a baby, Florence's father had her hair hot-combed to make her look like the other girls. But as a young woman, Florence is not so easy to tame-and when she brings scandal to his door, the bookbinder throws her onto the streets of Manchester. Intercepting her father's latest commission, Florence talks her way into the forbidding Rose Hall to restore its rare books. Lord Francis Belfield's library is old and full of secrets-but none so intriguing as the whispers about his late wife... Evocative, arresting and tightly plotted, The Library Thief is at once a propulsive gothic mystery and a striking exploration of race, gender and self-discovery in Victorian England.
