Hell to Pay: A Rogues & Vagabonds Novel
It’s Danny Ocean meets Mr Darcy as a group of Georgian London’s finest criminals team up to commit the theft of the century.
Less than a week after returning to London, FitzCharles “Fitz” Harrison is assembling the greatest team of thieves and scoundrels that Georgian England has ever seen. Fitz plans an elaborate heist to rob Fleming’s club, the richest gaming hell in the city, but unfortunately, his arrival back in London has not gone unnoticed. Sir Richard Ford, the talented new chief magistrate of Bow Street, and Duncan Fleming, the most ruthless of London’s criminal masterminds, are watching him.
If the plan has any chance of success, Fitz will have to enlist the services of Cora Delisle; courtesan, thief, and the woman whose fortune he once stole. Fitz knows Cora is as likely to see him hang as to help with the heist, but his family’s future rests on the success of this job. For Fitz, it’s worth the risk, even if it means going back on every promise he made. Sometimes you just have to do bad things for the greater good.

A Georgian caper book? I was dubious and slow to get into the book but then it was an enjoyable ride. Good characters; good dialogue; believable scam complete with small disasters. It kept me awake far longer than I wanted.
I wanted another book in this series immediately. I was disappointed that this seems to be the only one...so far. I hope she's a fast writer.

One of the best books I have read in a long time!!
This book kept me wondering if the "crooks" would really win in the end. It has so many different personalities and I enjoyed them all. There were so many details that made up this robbery it was super amazing. I am really looking forward to the next book in the series
