Publisher's Note
"A nineteenth-century version of THE STING...Crichton fascinates us."
THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW
In teeming Victorian London, where lavish wealth and appalling poverty live side by side, Edward Pierce charms the most prominent of the well-to-do as he cunningly orchestrates the crime of the century. Who would suspect that a gentleman of breeding could mastermind the daring theft of a fortune in gold? Who could predict the consequences of making the extraordinary robbery aboard the pride of England's industrial era, the mighty steam locomotive? Based on fact, as lively as legend, and studded with all the suspense and style of a modern fiction master, here is a classic caper novel set a decade before the age of dynamite--yet nonetheless explosive....


Industry Reviews
"A nineteenth-century version of 'The Sting'...A nice Victorian flavor...Crichton makes it all work because he has such a nice eye for 'the illuminating detail'."
Wagner

'One gorgeous read."
Ellroy

"Exciting...Each episode is set against the background of the underworld, the lodging houses in the slums...the bordellos, the pubs, and the prisons..."
Ellroy
