Thieves Fall In

A big black handbag, two bunches of daffodils, and a sharp-faced young man with pointed shoes. When a purse goes missing on a London-bound coach, an elderly passenger named Elsie steps in to fix the mess. But in Anthony Gilbert's rain-slicked urban world, charity is rarely free, and a successful heist is only as good as the final hand-off. A sharp, bite-sized mystery where everyone is playing a game, and the real winner is the one who leaves the bus first.
