Kate Foster recommends
The Queen of Fives (2025)
Alex Hay
"Alex Hay has plotted another stylish and masterful scheme. The Queen of Fives is a ripper of a historical thriller: high stakes, high society and high drama, with a gleaming cast of characters and a game that keeps you guessing till the last. Hay's writing is a sheer joy, brimming with delightful Victorian detail. This is a must-read. Five stars for The Queen of Fives!"
