I was a huge supporter and fan of The Spirit Engineer, and it has remained an enduring seasonal favourite in the shop. I tentatively approached The Betrayal of Thomas True….could it capture the same unique qualities that made The Spirit Engineer all it was? And the answer was no, it could not. Instead, AJ West has knocked it out of the park and created something even better. Delivering a novel with historical chops, a thriller-esque plot and a beautiful central romance.
Set in the Molly Houses of Georgian London, Gabriel Griffin meets Thomas True. But the Society is determined to rid the country of these ‘sinners’ and all their lives are on the line if the Rat isn’t found. An emotional read which held be in its thrall from beginning to end.
