The Girl in the Shadows

Evie hid in the shadows and discovered the secrets of important men.

"The Club" was frequented by the great and the good of Victorian London Society. No wealthy man in the city could have failed to hear about The Club’s illicit offerings. Evie’s mother, Elise Birch, owned the place and ran it well. Secrets were valuable commodities and Elise wanted them all.

The power lies with us. Men are weak. Men are only good for their money. Elise taught Evie all this and more.

But when Evie was left to run The Club at a tender age, she found herself forgetting her mother’s lessons.

Evie fell in love with a man. The very man who upheld the law that could see her imprisoned for plying an illegal trade.

A spellbinding look into the dark underbelly of Victorian London, at the high society men who fed off the illicit houses and the powerful women who ruled it all.
