Gideon Young was a fast-talking con man who could convince gullible people to gamble on almost anything. But even Young wouldn't have bet on being outwitted by a clock repairer and a thief turned housemaid, as his plans to fleece the residents of a Cotswold market town go terribly wrong. A woman with a mysterious past and a sheep shearer with a grudge add to the mix as Jacob Silver and Sarah Simm help the police solve a mystery involving love, loyalty and loaded dice.
'Pound to a Penny' is the sixth book in the Silver and Simm Victorian Mysteries series.
