What it's about
Susan "Sue" Trinder is a fingersmith (British slang for thief) who lives in the slums of London with baby farmer (person who looks after unwanted babies) Mrs. Sucksby. When a once-rich man who gambled away all his money presents them with a scam that has a payout of 40,000 pounds, Sue signs on to swindle rich Maud Lilly. Maud is an orphan who lives with her uncle, but what exactly is going on in the Lilly house? Sue will pose as Maud's maid so that Mr. Rivers (the gentleman) can get close to and eventually marry her. Their plan is to put Maud in the madhouse and take the money for themselves. But all goes awry when Sue falls in love with Maud. The question is: Who can you trust?
