They whisper her name in every corner of town. The lady with a hundred faces, a thousand lives.
Five moves, five days - for such are the rules of her game.
1898. Quinn Le Blanc, London's most talented con woman, has five days to pull off the seemingly impossible: trick an eligible duke into marriage and lift a fortune from the richest family in England.
Masquerading as a wealthy debutante, Quinn is the jewel of the season. Her brilliant act opens doors to the grand drawing rooms and lavish balls of high society - and propels her into the inner circle of her target: the corrupt, charismatic Kendals.
But as she spins in and out of their world, Quinn becomes tangled in a dangerous web of love, lies and loyalty. The Kendal family all have secrets of their own, and she may not be the only one playing a game of high deception...

批評家のレビュー
There are mysteries piled upon enigmas in this rollicking tale...Hay keeps the pages turning and the reader guessing... great fun
Audacious, cunning, quick-witted - this is a jewel of a book from the seriously talented Alex Hay. I was rooting for the Queen of Fives from the very first line (Louise Candlish)
The Queen of Fives is as fiendishly clever as its characters, an atmospheric novel with real heart and depth (Jennie Godfrey)
A dangerous game... delivered with fabulous aplomb
Rich in delicious detail and enticing prose, while terrifically fast-paced, Alex Hay's The Queen of Fives has stolen my heart! All the stars to this brilliant follow-up to The Housekeepers. Put simply, I am in awe of Alex's talent (Jessica Bull)
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... sheer joy, brimming with delightful Victorian detail. This is a must read. Five stars for the Queen of Fives! (Kate Foster)
A period piece, a full-throttle thriller and a masterclass in characterisation - historical fiction doesn't get more exciting than this (Erin Kelly)
