The Housekeepers

A riotous historical heist centert on an extraordinary alliance of women you’ll never forget. In this daring drama, upstairs at a grand Mayfair house, Madam prepares for the season’s party while the ball looms. The chandeliers gleam and the cellar is stocked, yet trouble brews as the loyal housekeeper Mrs King is dismissed. Downstairs, the servants plot the heist of the century, choosing to act right under the noses of their former employers. When the clock strikes twelve on the night of the ball, Mrs King returns to strip the house of its riches and pulls together a bold alliance of women with nothing left to lose and every reason for revenge. The novel follows a fast-paced, clever caper that blends suspense with a sharp, witty edge and a panoramic portrait of Victorian London.

The narrative contrasts elegance and desperation, turning a high-society setting into a stage for a high-stakes plan driven by loyalty, resentment and female camaraderie.
