Viennese Waltz

She is, only and always, Kate, and she has not come to Vienna for the dancing. But caught between a Department that distrusts her and an adversary who knows her immediately for one of his own, Kate - traceuse, pickpocket and cat burglar - finds that Vienna is always about dancing, and that the dance is in her blood. Carefully-plotted and emotionally involving, this is a book whose well drawn characters and fine prose can be savoured at leisure. It's also page turner whose intrigue, strong capable women and exotic locations can beguile away a long journey.
