Lila Cain is the pen name for writing duo, Kate Griffin and Marcia Hutchinson. We're delighted to be welcoming them to Lincoln!Some things are earned. Some things are worth fighting for...
It's 1782, Daniel and his sister Pearl arrive in London with the world at their feet and their future assured. Having escaped a Jamaican sugar plantation, Daniel fought for the British in the American War of Independence and was rewarded with freedom and an inheritance.
But the city is not a place for men like Daniel and he is callously tricked and finds himself, along with his sister Pearl, in the rookeries of St Giles - a warren of dark and menacing alleyways, filled with violence and poverty.
The underworld labyrinth is run by Elias, a man whose cruelty knows no bounds. But under his dangerous rule is a brotherhood of Black men, the Blackbirds of St Giles, whose intention is to set their people free...
Kate Griffin is the author of the historical thriller Fyneshade.
