About this listen
London 1862: Sue Trinder, orphaned at birth, grows up among petty thieves - fingersmiths - under the rough but loving care of Mrs Sucksby and her 'family'. But from the moment she draws breath, Sue's fate is linked to that of another orphan growing up in a gloomy mansion not too many miles away.

captivating and vivid
outstanding story with many twists. I couldn't stop listening. in every chapter, more of the plot would unfold. captivating! Waters' gift of painting a picture so vividly kept me among the characters for the duration of the novel. stunningly read too, Juanita managed to portray every character (and there were many) with their own personality through only her reading.
cannot wait for the next riveting read.
thank you!

What a fantastic BOOK!
If you love Jane Austen or want to hear a girl power Dickens novel you’ll love Fingersmith. Author Sarah Waters drew me into her clever twisting story from the first page. Get ready to get swept away because you’ll fall in love with her characters and feel transported back into the 1800’s. This novel was unique, painful, hopeful and in the end made me want to cry and clap with joy. I can’t wait to read everything else Sarah Waters has written!!!

captivating performance
How do you describe a book that has your 100% attention from the first "page" to the last? You can see, smell and taste every word read. Second time around and it is still one of my favourite.

Worth every minute
The story and performance were phenomenal. The characters and world were so beautifully built and every minute of the 24+ hrs was worth it.
