Heloise Edwina Marchant longs for the beauty and comfort of
her former life, before she was forced to flee her family
home. Coming to London in the guise of a boy, she has
learned the hard way how to survive among the hovels and
alleyways of St. Giles. There is shame in having to pick
the pockets of unsuspecting passersby, and the inevitable
happens—she is caught!
The gentleman who seizes hold of her is not angry for long.
In fact, his firm kindness is almost her undoing. For he
has come to St. Giles with a purpose—and she will help him
if she doesn't want to be reported to the authorities. But
how can she agree, when at any moment this good-looking man
could find out that he is a she?
