The Gentleman and the Thief

 





The Gentleman and the Thief, by Sarah Eden, is a tale full of twists and turns.  Hollis Darby and Ana Newport are an odd pair.  Hollis's family is wealthy and well-known in society, while Ana's family has worked hard and moved up from the lower rung of society.  However, her family has also suddenly lost it all.  The next oddity is that they both have secrets.  Hollis has taken to writing penny novels, not acceptable in society, in and attempt to keep his family afloat.  Ana has been secretly reclaiming items that were wrongly taken from her family!

This is an interesting tale to follow as Hollis and Ana not only build their relationship; but work against the wrongdoings taking place in their world!

This tale is unique because it has a penny novel interwoven with Sarah's tale!
