Cecilia Bassingwaite belongs to The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels.

Yet this is no ordinary Victorian lady's society . . .

Full of pirates, thieves and ne'er-do-wells, these women spend their days pickpocketing and blackmailing their way around the country all before their afternoon tea.

But when Cecilia meets Ned Lightbourne her world is set to change forever.

Because he's a paid assassin and she's his next hit.

Under the employment of the dastardly Captain Morvath - who wants to rid the world of these Lady Scoundrels - Ned knows he has one job to do.

But when he lays eyes on the feisty, beautiful Cecilia he's faced with a conundrum:

Does he kill her . . . or fall in love with her?

Bridgerton meets Peaky Blinders in this swashbuckling tale of scoundrels and society, crime and crumpets. As these enemies turn to allies and might just fall in love along the way . . .
