From an award-winning author, Fingersmith is an extraordinary, ingenious tale of fraud, insanity and secrets London 1862. Sue Trinder, orphaned at birth, grows up among petty thieves - fingersmiths - under the rough but loving care of Mrs Sucksby and her 'family'. But from the moment Sue draws breath, her fate is linked to that of another orphan growing up in a gloomy mansion not too many miles away. 'A page turning thriller while managing to be a tender love story' Adam Kay 'Intensely atmospheric, impeccably paced, and cunningly structured' Mail on Sunday 'A chilling, ingenious erotic thriller - unputdownable' Sunday Express 'Long, dark, twisted and satisfying... An unforgettable experience' Julie Myerson, Guardian
Sarah Waters, who was born in Wales, has been described as 'one of the best storytellers alive today' (Matt Thorne, Independent), and there can be no doubt that readers and critics alike have been gripped by her extraordinary imagination. Sarah Waters' first novel, Tipping the Velvet, won a Betty Trask Award, and was shortlisted for the Mail on Sunday/John Llewellyn Rhys Prize. Her next novel, Affinity, won the Somerset Maugham Award and the Sunday Times Young Writer of the Year Award while Fingersmith and The Night Watch were both shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize and the Orange Prize. The former also won the CWA Ellis Peters Dagger Award for Historical Crime Fiction and the South Bank Show Award for Literature.
