Set in a fantasy version of a Victorian city, Rook is a member of the oppressed minority of society. She is also a member of a all female gang that works undercover to bring justice and order to the women in their society. The ruling elite wish to wipe them out and in addition there is a Jack the Ripper type character killing them off. Rook and her fellow gang members must join forces with another gang to try to help their people overcome both the serial killer and the governing class.
This is a thrilling and intelligently written story. The characters are exciting, resourceful and adventurous. The plot is fast paced and diverse. Themes of the book are among others oppression, genocide, power and injustice.
A dark Victorian thriller but with a very modern take. I can't wait to read the concluding part.
