SPITTING GOLD is an atmospheric & tense sister story set in 19th-century Paris. Sylvie has made her way out of the gutter, positioned now as a Baroness with her grifter past far behind her...or so she thinks. Sylvia is rattled when her younger sister Charlotte appears on her doorstep, begging her to pull off one last con. Reluctantly, Sylvie agrees to pose once again as a medium to help (or, scam) a family who thinks they're being haunted by one of their ancestors. The longer their scam goes on, though, the more the sisters begin to worry that the ghost might be real after all. Atmospheric & exciting, SPITTING GOLD is a fast-paced, twisty-turny historical thriller perfect for fans of Sarah Waters!
