Maude Horton's Glorious Revenge

'This is escapist fiction at its best. Grisly, addictive fun . . . I devoured it in 24 hours' – Emilia Hart, author of Weyward
An addictive Gothic thriller set in the macabre world of Victorian London. Maude Horton's Glorious Revenge by Lizzie Pook follows an intrepid heroine, ready to risk it all for her missing sister.
London, 1850. Constance Horton has disappeared and her sister Maude is determined to find out what's happened.
She discovers that Constance has disguised herself as a boy and boarded a ship bound for the Arctic, but when the ship returns without her the truth about her fate is buried by sinister forces.
To find answers – and deliver justice for her sister – Maude must step into London's dark underbelly, and into the path of dangerous, powerful men. The kind of men who seek their fortune in the city's horrors, from the hangings at Newgate to the ghoulish waxworks of Madame Tussaud's.
It is a perilous task. But Maude has dangerous skills of her own . . .
