Description
1946. As London struggles to rebuild after the devastation of the Blitz, Alice Diamond is the "Queen of Thieves," leader of a gang of women jewel thieves. The women are expert shoplifters, scourging London's upscale boutiques and department stores-- and always facing the threat of violence. Alice takes on Nell, a teenager from the slums, and guides her in their underworld existence. Nell, hiding a pregnancy, has a hidden agenda: carving out her own path to power, and crowning herself the Queen of Thieves. -- adapted from back cover
