Ace, king, knave

McCann, Maria, 1956-2013
Books, Manuscripts
Sophia - rational, demure, and hiding a 'little weakness' - has recently married the charismatic Edward. But Edward has secrets of his own and Sophia comes to suspect that her marriage is not what it seems. In cramped rooms in Covent Garden, Betsy-Ann shuffles a pack of cards. A gambler, dealer in second-hand goods and living with a grave robber, her life could not be more different to Sophia's - but she too discovers that she's been lied to. As both women take steps to discover the truth, their lives come together through a dramatic series of events.
