3.0 out of 5 stars
Part one of a two part sensation story,
By Cheryl (Georgia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Birds of Prey (Paperback)
The "birds of prey" in this Victorian sensation novel are four con men, who use both legal and illegal methods of separating people from their money. The first half of the book is devoted to showing the life of each of these men. Halfway though, they all become interconnected and try their schemes on each other. The characters are interesting, but the plot could've been pared down. In fact, this is only part one of a larger two part story, which is continued in the book "Charlotte's Inheritance". Mainly for Braddon fans and those not looking for a quick read.
