Fingersmith

“Wily little street urchin Sue Trinder is tasked with hoodwinking wealthy heiress, Maud Lily. Gay as you like. Book-dropping twist. Inspired the movie The Handmaiden.”

“She's hitting Dimes Square/Arts District for a Negroni and a hot night out”

“This one is just delicious fun. Twists and turns and scheming and secrets and longing. The film The Handmaiden is loosely based on this although it actually took out a few of the surprise twists; must have been too much for one movie.”

“The twistiest thriller I’ve ever read. Charles Dickens meets Patricia Highsmith.”
